3.6: Other advances in numerical ocean modelling

Theme 3 – Splinter 6
Abstracts of session 3.6 Chaired by Maarten Buijsman

The overarching goal of the Theme 3 session is to bring forward the latest developments in ocean modeling and forecasting from a combined physical and biogeochemical perspective. The first two splinter sessions emphasize ocean, atmosphere, and ice forecasts and nowcasts. The third session focuses on biogeochemical and ecological applications. The fourth deals with the latest advances in sea ice modeling and prediction. Finally, the last session emphasizes the small scales.

4.4: Biogeochemical and coupled ocean-atmosphere data assimilation

Theme 4 – Splinter 4
Abstracts of session 4.4 Chaired by Stefano Ciavatta and Dan Lea

This session includes applications of data assimilation to ocean biogeochemistry, including the use of satellite and in situ observations to constrain coupled physical-biogeochemical ocean models. It also includes presentations on coupled ocean-atmosphere data assimilation whereby observations of the ocean and atmosphere are assimilated into coupled models.
