        | The MyOcean R&D project MESCLA (MEsoSCaLe dynamical Analysis through
combined model, satellite and in situ data) was devoted to the high
resolution 3-D retrieval of tracer and velocity fields in the oceans, based
on the combination of in situ and satellite observations and
quasi-geostrophic dynamical models. The retrieval techniques were also
tested and compared with the output of a primitive equation model, with
particular attention to the accuracy of the vertical velocity field as
estimated through the Q vector formulation of the omega equation. The
project focused on a test case, covering the region where the Gulf Stream
separates from the US East Coast. This work demonstrated that innovative
methods for the high resolution mapping of 3-D mesoscale dynamics from
observations can be used to build the next generations of operational
observation-based products. |
