Streamflow, as a natural phenomenon, is continuous in time and so are the meteorological variables which influence its variability. In practice, it can be of interest to forecast the whole flow curve instead of points (daily or hourly). To…
Wall-bounded turbulent flows are chaotic and multiscale, rendering real-time prediction at high Reynolds numbers computationally prohibitive in applications such as wind farms. Classical data assimilation methods are based on repeated…
