Book Synopsis Assimilating the Primitive by : Kelley R. Swarthout
Download or read book Assimilating the Primitive written by Kelley R. Swarthout and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the Mexican nationalist rhetoric that promoted race mixing as a cultural ideal, placing it within its broader contemporary polemic between vitalist and scientific thought. Part of its analysis compares the attitudes of anthropologist Manuel Gamio and educator José Vasconcelos with those of the European primitivist D. H. Lawrence, and concludes that although Gamio and Vasconcelos made lasting contributions to the construction of popular notions of mexicanidad, their paradigms were fatally flawed because they followed European prescriptions for the development of national identity. This ultimately reinforced the belief that indigenous cultural expression must be assimilated into the dominant mestizo culture in order for Mexico to progress. Consequently, these thinkers were unsuccessful in resolving the cultural dilemma Mexico suffered in the years immediately following the Revolution.

Book Synopsis Data Assimilation by : William Lahoz
Download or read book Data Assimilation written by William Lahoz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-07-23 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data assimilation methods were largely developed for operational weather forecasting, but in recent years have been applied to an increasing range of earth science disciplines. This book will set out the theoretical basis of data assimilation with contributions by top international experts in the field. Various aspects of data assimilation are discussed including: theory; observations; models; numerical weather prediction; evaluation of observations and models; assessment of future satellite missions; application to components of the Earth System. References are made to recent developments in data assimilation theory (e.g. Ensemble Kalman filter), and to novel applications of the data assimilation method (e.g. ionosphere, Mars data assimilation).

Book Synopsis Modern Approaches to Data Assimilation in Ocean Modeling by : P. Malanotte-Rizzoli
Download or read book Modern Approaches to Data Assimilation in Ocean Modeling written by P. Malanotte-Rizzoli and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1996-05-10 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of oceanographic data assimilation is now well established. The main area of concern of oceanographic data assimilation is the necessity for systematic model improvement and ocean state estimation. In this respect, the book presents the newest, innovative applications combining the most sophisticated assimilation methods with the most complex ocean circulation models. Ocean prediction has also now emerged as an important area in itself. The book contains reviews of scientific oceanographic issues covering different time and space scales. The application of data assimilation methods can provide significant advances in the understanding of this subject. Also included are the first, recent developments in the forecasting of oceanic flows. Only original articles that have undergone full peer review are presented, to ensure the highest scientific quality. This work provides an excellent coverage of state-of-the-art oceanographic data assimilation.

Book Synopsis Assimilation and Empire by : Saliha Belmessous
Download or read book Assimilation and Empire written by Saliha Belmessous and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-03-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assimilation was an ideology central to European expansion and colonisation, an ideology which legitimised colonisation for centuries. Assimilation and Empire shows that the aspiration for assimilation was not only driven by materialistic reasons, but was also motivated by ideas. The engine of assimilation was found in the combination of two powerful ideas: the European philosophical conception of human perfectibility and the idea of the modern state. Europeans wanted to create, in their empires, political and cultural forms they valued and wanted to realise in their own societies, but which did not yet exist. Saliha Belmessous examines three imperial experiments - seventeenth- and eighteenth-century New France, nineteenth-century British Australia, and nineteenth and twentieth-century French Algeria - and reveals the complex inter-relationship between policies of assimilation, which were driven by a desire for perfection and universality, and the greatest challenge to those policies, discourses of race, which were based upon perceptions of difference. Neither colonised nor European peoples themselves were able to conform to the ideals given as the object of assimilation. Yet, the deep links between assimilation and empire remained because at no point since the sixteenth century has the utopian project of perfection - articulated through the progressive theory of history - been placed seriously in question. The failure of assimilation pursued through empire, for both colonised and coloniser, reveals the futility of the historical pursuit of perfection.
Book Synopsis Forecast Error Correction using Dynamic Data Assimilation by : Sivaramakrishnan Lakshmivarahan
Download or read book Forecast Error Correction using Dynamic Data Assimilation written by Sivaramakrishnan Lakshmivarahan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the reader to a new method of data assimilation with deterministic constraints (exact satisfaction of dynamic constraints)—an optimal assimilation strategy called Forecast Sensitivity Method (FSM), as an alternative to the well-known four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) data assimilation method. 4D-Var works with a forward in time prediction model and a backward in time tangent linear model (TLM). The equivalence of data assimilation via 4D-Var and FSM is proven and problems using low-order dynamics clarify the process of data assimilation by the two methods. The problem of return flow over the Gulf of Mexico that includes upper-air observations and realistic dynamical constraints gives the reader a good idea of how the FSM can be implemented in a real-world situation.
Book Synopsis Data Assimilation for the Geosciences by : Steven J. Fletcher
Download or read book Data Assimilation for the Geosciences written by Steven J. Fletcher and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2022-11-16 with total page 1130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data Assimilation for the Geosciences: From Theory to Application, Second Edition brings together all of the mathematical and statistical background knowledge needed to formulate data assimilation systems into one place. It includes practical exercises enabling readers to apply theory in both a theoretical formulation as well as teach them how to code the theory with toy problems to verify their understanding. It also demonstrates how data assimilation systems are implemented in larger scale fluid dynamical problems related to land surface, the atmosphere, ocean and other geophysical situations. The second edition of Data Assimilation for the Geosciences has been revised with up to date research that is going on in data assimilation, as well as how to apply the techniques. The new edition features an introduction of how machine learning and artificial intelligence are interfacing and aiding data assimilation. In addition to appealing to students and researchers across the geosciences, this now also appeals to new students and scientists in the field of data assimilation as it will now have even more information on the techniques, research, and applications, consolidated into one source. Includes practical exercises and solutions enabling readers to apply theory in both a theoretical formulation as well as enabling them to code theory Provides the mathematical and statistical background knowledge needed to formulate data assimilation systems into one place New to this edition: covers new topics such as Observing System Experiments (OSE) and Observing System Simulation Experiments; and expanded approaches for machine learning and artificial intelligence
