OPTIMISATION OF PARAMETERS IN A GERMAN BIGHT CIRCULATION MODEL BY 4DVAR ASSIMILATION OF CURRENT AND WATER LEVEL OBSERVATIONS

Optimisation of Parameters in a German Bight Circulation Model by 4DVAR Assimilation of Current and Water Level Observations

Uncertain parameters in a 3D barotropic circulation model of the German Bight are estimated with a variational optimisation approach.Surface current measurements from a high frequency (HF) radar are used in combination with acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) and tide gauge observations as input for a 4DVAR assimilation scheme.The required cos

Inequality and development

Inequality can be analyzed from various aspects.In this paper our attention is drawn to economic inequality, most frequently manifested through Compositi Matrix Toe Cage income and wealth.The measurement of economic inequality is a complex task.The Lorenz curve and a number of numerical indices are applied, and let us mention the following ones: th
