OceanMAPS Duplicate Checker • Data sources (downloaded twice daily): GODAE Argo profiles CoriolisArgo profiles GTSArgo profiles, buoy and XBT data • IDL code now run by NMOC • Selects best daily observations based on data state, QC level and arrival date. • Rejects duplicate profiles • Creates a netcdf file to hold the best observations for a particular day • Generating files for Jan 2005 – June 2006 Claire Spillman (BMRC)
Indian Ocean Predictability • Assimilate all available temperature data Argo profiles XBT Buoy and TAO array • Compare results with and without Argo data • Impacts of salinity data assimilation? • Model performance in data sparse regions?
