| Zusammenfassung |
| One of the main objectives of the European MyOcean project is to set up an integrated
pan-European capacity for ocean monitoring and forecasting. So, the new global
ocean forecasting system developed at Mercator Ocean is a first milestone to the
MyOcean project. This global ocean forecasting system consists of (i) a global
ocean and sea ice high resolution model with a horizontal resolution of 1/12o and 50
vertical levels based on the NEMO OGCM and (ii) a data assimilation scheme named
SAM2v1 (based on the SEEK filter). This multivariate data assimilation system is
able to assimilate both in situ and remotely sensed data (SLA, SST) in order to
provide the initial conditions required for numerical ocean prediction. This new global
ocean forecasting system offers a new perspective on the global ocean mesoscale
monitoring but it needs high performance computing resources. Designs, results and
future developments of this new global ocean forecasting system will be shown. |
