Assimilating Tomography Data into an Ocean Model.

1997

Howe, Bruce M. | Mercer, James A.

The objective of this research is to examine how assimilated acoustic tomography data constrains an open ocean quasi-geostrophic circulation model and improves model output. The primary scientific objective is to understand how line-integral measurements, such as tomographic measurements, improve the forecast skill of an ocean circulation model. In addition, we will quantify the improvement in the tomography array's spatial resolution and produce valuable qg-consistent ocean statistics for the Acoustic Mid-ocean Dynamics Experiment (AMODE) region.
