Sensitivity analysis and parameter estimation for distributed hydrological modeling: potential of variational methods
Variational methods are widely used for the analysis and control of computationally intensive spatially distributed systems. In particular, the adjoint state method enables a very efficient calculation of the derivatives of an objective function (response function to be analysed or cost function to...
