Variational data assimilation and parameter estimation in an equatorial Pacific Ocean model

A variational data assimilation and parameter estimation method for a reduced gravity model is developed. The method is applied to the Equatorial Pacific Ocean. In the variational formalism a cost function measuring the "distance" between the model solution and the observations is minimize...
