Particle Flow for a Quasi-Geostrophic Model
This chapter discusses the application of a particle-flow filter to a two-layer quasi-geostrophic model. The reasons for including this example are... -
Deterministic ensemble Kalman filter based on two localization techniques for mitigating sampling errors with a quasi-geostrophic model
In the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) framework for data assimilation, a limited ensemble size results in a spurious sampling error and...

Quasi-geostrophic Theory
Based on developments in Chap. 2, it is possible to arrive at sets of governing equations unifying GFD theory for the atmosphere and ocean, by... -
Wind stress curl as a driving force of annual waves in the upper ocean for interpreting energetics at all latitudes
The dynamics of waves and eddies in the upper ocean plays an important role in the climate variation of tropical and subtropical regions. Previous...
