The polynomial chaos (PC) method has been widely adopted as a computationally feasible approach for uncertainty quantification (UQ). Most studies to date have focused on non-stiff systems. When stiff systems are considered, implicit numerical integration requires the solution of a non-linear...

Data assimilation is the process of integrating observational data and model predictions to obtain an optimal representation of the state of the atmosphere. As more chemical observations in the troposphere are becoming available, chemical data assimilation is expected to play an essential role...

Parameter estimation for large systems is a difficult problem, and the solution approaches are computationally expensive. The polynomial chaos approach has been shown to be more efficient than Monte Carlo for quantifying the effects of uncertainties on the system response. This article compares...
