Ocean State Estimation and Prediction of the Intra-Americas Sea

Abstract

The primary goal is to demonstrate the utility of the ROMS framework in a real-time, sea-going environment for prediction studies in the Intra-Americas Sea (IAS) with particular emphasis in the Caribbean Sea. As such, we will demonstrate, as a proof of concept, the utility of adjoint modeling and 4-Dimensional Variational (4DVar) data assimilation in a real-time operational setting, at sea.
