4 pm today, L1

Join us in N3.12 at 2:30 pm on Wednesday December 3rd for a chance to ask Mathematrix DPhil students anything you want about the experience of applying for a maths PhD. There will be sweet treats as always. 

We are also looking for additional volunteers (outside of OCIAM and WCMB) to share their experiences of applying for a PhD in this session. If you are available and interested, please email @email by Monday 1st December.

Abstract

Data assimilation plays a crucial role in modern weather prediction, providing a systematic way to incorporate observational data into complex dynamical models. The paper addresses continuous data assimilation for a model arising as a singular limit of the three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier system with rotation driven by temperature gradient. The limit system preserves the essential physical mechanisms of the original model,  while exhibiting a reduced, effectively two-and-a-half-dimensional structure. This simplified framework allows for a rigorous analytical study of the data assimilation process while maintaining a direct physical connection to the full compressible model.  We establish well posedness of global-in-time solutions and a compact trajectory attractor, followed by the stability and convergence results for the nudging scheme applied to the limiting system. Finally, we demonstrate how these results can be combined with a relative entropy argument to extend the assimilation framework to the full three-dimensional compressible setting, thereby establishing a rigorous connection between the reduced and physically complete models.
