SGER: Postdoctoral Position for Assimilation of Upper Ocean Velocity Data in an Ocean Analysis System

该奖项支持的博士后研究员将致力于评估海洋上层收集的数据对气候模型预测的影响的一般问题 本文将研究海洋分析系统（OAS）同化上层海洋速度资料的有效性及其对基于耦合模式的季节到年际气候变率预测的影响。这项工作将为太平洋TOGA观测系统从研究模式转变为业务模式提供必要的指导和依据。

The post-doctoral fellow supported by this award will work on the general problem of assessing the impact of data collected in the upper ocean to climate model predictions The efficacy of assimilating upper ocean velocity data as part of an Ocean Analysis System (OAS) and their impact on coupled model based predictions of seasonal to interannual climate variabilitywill be investigated This work will provide the needed guidance and justification for transferring the TOGA observing system in the Pacific from a research to an operational mode.
