Collaborative Research: Characterization and Modeling of the Philippines Strait Dynamics Using the ROMS 4DV AR Data Assimilation System.

摘要

The goal of this project is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the remote and local factors that control the meso- and submesoscale features in and around the Philippines Strait region. The primary tool to be used is a nested grid implementation of ROMS in conjunction with advanced data assimilation techniques and adjoint-based methods of sensitivity analysis. The ultimate goal of the project is to improve our capability to predict the inherent spatial and temporal variability near the Straits, and thus contribute to the development of reliable prediction systems.
