Conclusions The estimation of gas flux between the surface and the atmosphere is a key issue for several objectives: air pollution quality, climate change monitoring, short and medium range weather forecasting, and ecology. This lecture presents two formulations to address this important inverse problem: optimization problem approach, and artificial neural networks. When the inverse problem is formulated as an optimization problem, a regularization operator is, in general, required. The optimal solution could be computed using a determinisc or a stochastic searching methods. Deterministic methods has a faster convergence, but stochastic schemes can overcome the local minima. The regularization strategy requires the estimation of the regularization parameter, responsible by a fine balance between adhesion term (square difference between measurements and model data) and of the regularization function. For the present estimation, the PSO inverse strategy does not use the regularization. This is an advantage, but there are much more calculations of the objective function than the determinisc method. The artificial neural networks produced the better results for the worked example. More investigations are needed to confirm this good performance. We are generating different weather conditions, for all seasons of the year and for different latitudes, to provide more robust conclusions. Any way, the results are very encouraging. As a final remark, two topologies for MLP neural network were identified. Of course, the best result is an obvious criterion to select the topology, but an additional criterion could be based on the complexity: less complex NN (less neurons) is better. Using these two criteria, the NN-1 (6:6:12:12) could be better than NN-2 (6:15:30:12).

strategy requires the estimation of the regularization parameter, responsible by a fine<br />

and of the regularization function. For the present estimation, the PSO inverse strategy does<br />
not use the regularization. This is an advantage, but there are much more calculations of the<br />
