Enhanced Ocean Predictability Through Optimal Observing Strategies

Abstract

The long-term goal of this research is to develop the requisite technology to design effective observation strategies that will maximize the capacity to predict mesoscale and submesoscale conditions so as to provide the best possible nowcasts and forecasts of oceanic conditions.
