Collaborative Proposal: ITR/AP: Modular Ocean Data Assimilation

[12150 . 06]最近开发了一种模块化的海洋资料同化系统。它已经以一种简单的方式实现了，有各种各样的海洋和海洋-大气耦合模型。该项目将利用信息技术，包括现代软件工程概念、新的可视化技术和基于网络的交互式培训，加强系统。再加上有效的外展和先进的优化算法，这些信息技术要素将通过模块化系统与广泛的沿海、盆地尺度和全球海洋模型联系起来。变分资料同化也用于业务天气预报和海洋预报、海洋生物地球化学、地下水水文学和固体地球物理学。因此，新的模块化系统将在整个地球科学领域立即受益。该团队包括14名物理海洋学家、土木工程师和计算机科学家，他们来自6所大学、一个国家实验室和私营企业。该计划由资讯科技研究计划资助

0121506A modular system for ocean data assimilation has recently been developed. It has already been implemented in an unsophisticated way, with a variety of models of the ocean and the coupled ocean-atmosphere. This project will enhance the system using Information Technology, including modern software engineering concepts, new visualization techniques and interactive web-based training. Together with effective outreach and advanced optimization algorithms, these elements of IT will be linked through the modular system to a wide range of coastal, basin-scale and global ocean models. Variational data assimilation is also coming into use in operational weather forecasting and ocean forecasting, in ocean biogeochemistry, in groundwater hydrology and in solid-earth geophysics. The new modular system will thus be of immediate benefit throughout the geosciences. The team includes 14 physical oceanographers, civil engineers and computer scientists in six universities, a national laboratory, and private industry. The project is funded under the Information Technology Research Initiative
