Reconstruction of the circulation in Pacific Sector during 2008
Attention: all temperature, salinity, velocity and SSH fields
are availabed upon request. Please send your requests to gleb@iarc.uaf.edu
Goals: (1) Reconstruct the circulation; (2) Estimates of the transport ;
(3) Develope nested 4Dvar data assimilation system
Data: (1) Hydrophysicals surveys during June 15-November 15 2008
and October 1991 (2) 4 moorings with CTD and current meters
(3) Bering Strait transport and moorings
(4) Meteorological data
