Welcome to the DASH Tutorial!

This tutorial is designed to introduce users to DASH, a Matlab toolbox for paleoclimate data assimilation. After an initial overview of the DASH toolbox, the tutorial alternates between a series of short lessons and code demos. Each lesson introduces a component of the DASH toolbox and demonstrate its use. The following code demos then give users an opportunity to practice using that component.

By the end of the tutorial, users should be able to use DASH to implement many types of assimilations. The tutorial is designed to introduce nearly all of the main features of DASH - this likely includes more features than any single user will need, so feel free to skip over sections not relevant to your particular interests. We recommend budgeting several hours to complete the tutorial.
