A nudging-based data assimilation method: the Back and Forth Nudging (BFN) algorithm
This paper deals with a new data assimilation algorithm, called Back and Forth Nudging. The standard nudging technique consists in adding to the equations of the model a relaxation term that is supposed to force the observations to the model. The BFN algorithm consists in repeatedly performing forwa...
