Two PDE classes are considered: the shallow water equations, which describe free-surface flows in coastal and riverine environments, and the advection-diffusion equation, which models the transport and mixing of scalar quantities such as temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen. A numerical PDE solver provides predicted fields over the domain, and multiple field channels are fused as multimodal measurements to improve localization accuracy. We formulate the problem within a Rao-Blackwellized particle filter (RBPF) that partitions the vehicle state into a nonlinear component sampled by particles and a linear sensor bias component tracked analytically via per-particle Kalman filters. This factorization reduces the required number of particles compared to a standard particle filter while accounting for realistic sensor drift. Simulation studies on both PDE scenarios show that the RBPF consistently outperforms a standard particle filter in terms of final position error and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) across varying particle counts. Field experiments with an autonomous surface vehicle measuring salinity, temperature, and dissolved oxygen validate that PDE-governed environmental fields provide sufficient spatial variability for practical localization.
