HYCOM Consortium for Data Assimilative Modeling

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA475680 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The goal of the project is to make HYCOM HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model a state of the art community ocean model with data assimilation capability of sea surface height from altimetry, sea surface temperature from MCSST and in-situ data. The uhimate goal is to have an eddy-resolving assimilative fully global nowcastforecast system running in real time that will provide boundary conditions to a variety of higher resolution coastal models.
