The application of Ensemble Kalman Filter : Data assimilation in simple one-line and free-form coastline evolution models : Case study : The mega-scale nourishment project in the Dutch coast, the Sand Motor

Coastal shorelines play a significant role in shaping the future of seaside cities and towns due to coastline variations generated by large-scale human interventions, climate change, and sea-level rise. There are many challenges in forecasting coastal changes with the desired accuracy, given the epistemic and intrinsic uncertainties associated with this process. However, such uncertainties could be reduced through the data assimilation process which makes use of available observations data in enhancing the model reliability and robustness. The main focus of this research is to study the effect... Mehr ...
