Measurements for improved understanding and forecasting of the ocean dynamics
ORGANIZED BY
Giuseppe Grieco
Royal Dutch Meteorological Institute, Netherlands
ABSTRACT
Ocean and atmospheric measurements play a fundamental role in our understanding of the sea state and its evolution. The aim of this session is to stimulate a discussion on new data processing methodologies aiming at exploiting the information content of current and upcoming sea monitoring technologies, including in situ and remotely sensed. A special attention is given to synergistic and data assimilation approaches and to applications in coastal areas and/or the Mediterranean basin.
