On behalf of Eric Chassignet and Ichiro Fukumori:
Special session on "Scientific and Practical Lessons Learned From Ocean Data Assimilation" at the 2010 Ocean Sciences meeting in Portland
We would like to bring your attention to the special session entitled "Scientific and Practical Lessons Learned From Ocean Data Assimilation"
at the next AGU Ocean Sciences meeting in Portland, 22-26 February 2010. We would therefore like to invite you to submit an abstract
related to our session. Please remember October 15 is the final deadline to submit an abstract electronically on the AGU web page.
PO42: Scientific and Practical Lessons Learned From Ocean Data Assimilation
Significant advances have been made in the past 10 years in ocean state estimation and data assimilation. Estimation and assimilation techniques are now routinely used by coastal, regional, and global ocean analysis and prediction systems that improve model estimates by constraining them with ocean observations. Much of the emphasis until recently has been on either the estimation and assimilation methodologies or the testing and validation of the ocean analyses and predictions. As the subject matter evolves, focus is shifting towards scientific and practical applications of these products and modeling tools. This session therefore invites contributions that illustrate the increased scientific understanding of the ocean and practical applications gained from ocean state estimation and data assimilation. Contributions are sought from studies of the ocean's physics and biology as well as practical applications of these tools and products.
