Do Assimilated Drifter Velocities Improve Lagrangian Predictability in an Operational Ocean Model?
The Lagrangian predictability of general circulation models is limited by the need for high-resolution data streams to constrain small-scale dynamical features. Here velocity observations from Lagrangian drifters deployed in theGulf ofMexico during the summer 2012GrandLagrangianDeployment (GLAD) experiment are assimilated into the Naval Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) 4D variational (4DVAR) analysis...
متن کاملImpact of Assimilating Ocean Velocity Observations Inferred from Lagrangian Drifter Data Using the NCOM-4DVAR*
Eulerian velocity fields are derived from 300 drifters released in the Gulf of Mexico by The Consortium for Advanced Research on Transport of Hydrocarbon in the Environment (CARTHE) during the summer 2012 Grand Lagrangian Deployment (GLAD) experiment. These data are directly assimilated into the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) four-dimensional variational data assimilation (4DVAR) analysis syst...
متن کاملA Lagrangian Drifter with Inexpensive Wide Area Differential Gps Positioning
Autonomous drifting buoys that acquire position data using Global Positioning System (GPS) navigation have proven valuable in Lagrangian measurement applications requiring greater accuracy and data density than is available through other technologies such as ARGOS satellite tracking. The limits on measurement accuracy in a GPS drifter are set by the geographic accuracy of the GPS position. Stan...
متن کاملEulerian and Lagrangian Isopycnal Eddy Diffusivities in the Southern Ocean of an Eddying Model
Lagrangian isopycnal diffusivities quantify the along-isopycnal mixing of any tracer with mean gradients along isopycnal surfaces. They are studied in the Southern Ocean of the 1/108 Parallel Ocean Program (POP) model using more than 50 000 float trajectories. Concurrent Eulerian isopycnal diffusivities are estimated directly from the eddy fluxes and mean tracer gradients. Consistency, spatial ...
متن کاملSite selection of ocean current power generation from drifter measurements
Site selection of ocean current power generation is usually based on numerical ocean calculation models. In this study however, the selection near the coast of East Asia is optimally from the Surface Velocity Program (SVP) data using the bin average method. Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan, and Philippines have suitable sites for the development of ocean current power generation. In these regions, the av...
