Metrics

Abstract

The long-term goals of this project are to aid in the development of accurate modeling of upper ocean circulation by using data on circulation observations to test models. These tests, or metrics, will be statistical measures of model and data comparisons. It is believed that having accurate models of upper ocean currents will produce accurate models of sea level and temperature patterns.
