Data assimilation, model parameterization and application Cathy and Michael
Year one objectives Develop primary scenario(s) and identify 1-3D domains of interest. Gather requirements from process modelers. Develop foundational data sets: parameter values, forcings, initial and boundary conditions to develop and test hydro, thermal mechanical process models/modules. Develop methods to fuse high temporal res./, low spatial res. data with high spatial res./low temporal res. data and assimilate into models. Use data assimilation tools to distribute values throughout selected high resolution 3-D model regime at appropriate scales.
