Populations and Evolution 2012-12-27 v1 Applications

Abstract

We present results of a forecast initiated following assimilation of observations for week Week 50 (i.e. the forecast begins December 16, 2012) of the 2012-2013 influenza season for municipalities in the United States. The forecast was made on December 21, 2012. Results from forecasts initiated the three previous weeks (Weeks 47-49) are also presented. Also results from forecasts generated with an SIRS model without absolute humidity forcing (no AH) are shown.
