Designing Optimal Sampling Networks, Fixed and Adaptive for Ocean Forecast Modeling

Abstract

The overall long term goal is to develop innovative, practical and efficient methodologies for the design of fixed and adaptive oceanic platforms, eulerian and lagrangian, such as fixed moorings, profiling moorings, gliders, drifters, AUVs. The main objective is to develop this methodology for the Gulf of Maine/Georges Bank (GM/GB) region where an integrated model system has been developed at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth centered around the Finite-Volume Coastal Ocean circulation Model (FVCOM).
