Data Assimilation for Agricultural Water Management

World’s population is increasing day by day. It will be making water management very critical issue. It has become absolutely necessary to find the solution for effective water management. Many techniques are available for effective water management based on the observed data analysis. Most of the techniques are statistical which are based on collection of data and analysing this data with the help of designing a computational model. For designing the computational model various mathematical and statistical techniques has been used based on state variable equations.

A computational model contains numerous variables that characterise the system being studied. Simulation is done by adjusting these variables and observing how the changes affect the outcomes predicted by the model. The results of model simulations help researchers make predictions about what will happen in the real system that is being studied in response to changing conditions.

Data assimilation is the process by which observations are incorporated into a computer model of a real system. Data assimilation is very important concept of applied mathematics which is used in most of the application areas from signal processing to weather forecasting.
