Abstract: An efficient procedure is presented for analyzing oceanographic observations with the aid of a general circulation model. Poorly known model parameters, such as eddy-mixing coefficients, surface forcing and tracer boundary ...

Abstract: A scheme is presented for assimilating expendable bathythermographic data into HYCOM, an oceanic circulation model featuring a hybrid vertical coordinate. The scheme is fully multivariate, using observations of temperature ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the solution of inverse problems involving complex numerical models of the oceanic general circulation and large datasets. The goal of these inverse problems is to find values for model inputs consistent ...

Abstract: A general circulation model and North Atlantic climatological data of temperature salinity, wind stress, evaporation minus precipitation, and air?sea heat fluxes are used to examine the possibility of solving inverse ...
