NEDAS 1.1.0

No project description provided

The Next-generation Ensemble Data Assimilation System (NEDAS) is a lightweight, modular Python platform designed for rapid prototyping and testing of data assimilation (DA) algorithms in geophysical models. Leveraging mpi4py, numpy, and numba, NEDAS ensures scalability and computational efficiency for high-dimensional systems. Thanks to the rich Python ecosystem for machine learning, NEDAS provides a platform for early-stage development of novel DA methods. Moreover, NEDAS offers a collection of state-of-the-art DA algorithms for benchmarking, including the serial assimilation approaches (similar to DART) and batch assimilation approaches (similar to the LETKF in PDAF).

NEDAS documentaion is available online

NEDAS was initiated by Yue Ying in 2022. Please cite this repository if you used NEDAS to produce results in your research publication/presentation.

The developement of this software was supported by the NERSC internal funding in 2022; and the Scale-Aware Sea Ice Project (SASIP) in 2023-2024.

With contribution from: Anton Korosov, Timothy Williams (pynextsim libraries), NERSC-HYCOM-CICE group led by Annette Samuelsen (pythonlib for abfile, confmap, etc.), Jiping Xie (enkf-topaz), Tsuyoshi Wakamatsu (BIORAN), Francois Counillon, Yiguo Wang, Tarkeshwar Singh (EnOI, EnKF, and offline EnKS in NorCPM).

We provide the software "as is", the user is responsible for their own modification and ultimate interpretation of their research findings using the software. We welcome community feedback and contribution to support new models/observations, please use the "pull request" if you want to be part of the development effort.
