The Viability of COADS Data Assimilation in Coupled Ocean Atmosphere Models
Abstract
COADS data from 1950 through 1997 are tested using the coherence squared method to determinine their suitability for data assimilation into coupled ocean / atmosphere models. The results of these tests are then compared to the least squared method to ascertain any benefits of coherence testing for data assimilation.
