Data Assimilation and Model Simulations in the California Current

Abstract

The long-term goal of this research is to develop, verify and apply numerical ocean prediction models to eastern boundary coastal regions in order to improve our scientific understanding of the structure and dynamics of such regions. The broad objective of this research is to aid in the development of a reliable modeling capability for eastern boundary current regions. The specific objective is to carry out and extensively verify several DieCAST model simulations of the annual cycle in the California Current. We also wish to develop and apply digital filter initialization (DFI) as a diagnostic tool in numerical ocean prediction.
