This work deals with the integration of sequential data assimilation techniques in regional coastal numerical models. Two suboptimal schemes of the Kalman filter are described in detail, both of which can approximate the results of the Kalman filter but at a much lower cost. This book compares these two suboptimal schemes and evaluates their performance.
