Data-assimilation has long been used to improve accuracy, but most of the widely-used methods are difficult to implement. We tried a new and an easy-to-implement method to estimate boundary conditions. This method uses data assimilation with a stochastic gradient descent and successive approximations of the boundary conditions. We tested it with twin experiments and a more realistic setting on a tidal model in the lagoon of Ouano, in New-Caledonia. The method proved successful and provided good estimation of the boundary conditions with various settings of subsampling and noise for the pseudo-data in the twin experiments, but there were important oscillations in the experiments with more realistic settings. Here we present those results and discuss the use of our new and easy-to-implement method. specialized Parameters identification Tidal modeling Stochastic algorithms Data assimilation PACIFIQUE NOUVELLE CALEDONIE 032 020 156 101709 [14 ] 2020 1463-5003 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010080411 1463-5003 [F B010080411] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010080411 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2020/12/010080411.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2021-01-14 2022-11-08 fdi:010080411 fre
