A Robust Non-Gaussian Data Assimilation Method for Highly Non-Linear Models

In this paper, we propose an efficient EnKF implementation for non-Gaussian data assimilation based on Gaussian Mixture Models and Markov-Chain-Monte-Carlo (MCMC) methods. The proposed method works as follows: based on an ensemble of model realizations, prior errors are estimated via a Gaussian Mixt...
