Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Data assimilation (DA) is fundamental computational technique to integrate numerical simulation models and observation data based on Bayesian statistics. The purpose of this study is to develop DA system using cloud computing technology. The prototype has been verified by a twin experiment that attempted to reproduce true hypocentric parameters from synthetic infrasound variations due to seismoacoustic wave propagation excited by a large earthquake. The estimated marginal posterior distributions related to the hypocentric parameters were clearly consistent with the true values, and the theoretical infrasound variations reproduced from the optimum parameters successfully explained the synthetic observation data. This result demonstrates that the proposed DA system works properly.
