      Effective ocean management requires integrated and sustainable ocean observing systems enabling us to map and understand ecosystem properties and the effects of human activities. Autonomous subsurface and surface vehicles, here collectively referred to as “gliders”, are part of such ocean observing systems providing high spatiotemporal resolution. In this paper, we present some of the results achieved ...
    • Barents-2.5km v2.0: an operational data-assimilative coupled ocean and sea ice ensemble prediction model for the Barents Sea and Svalbard

U.; Durán Moro, Marina; Brændshøi, Jostein; Kristensen, Nils Melsom; Fritzner, Sindre Markus; Wang, Keguang; Sperrevik, Ann Kristin; Idzanovic, Martina; Lavergne, Thomas; Debernard, Jens Boldingh; Christensen, Kai Håkon (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-22)
      An operational ocean and sea ice forecast model, Barents-2.5, is implemented for short-term forecasting at the coast off northern Norway, the Barents Sea, and the waters around Svalbard. Primary forecast parameters are sea ice concentration (SIC), sea surface temperature (SST), and ocean currents. The model also provides input data for drift modeling of pollutants, icebergs, and search-and-rescue ...
    • Improving sea surface temperature in a regional ocean model through refined sea surface temperature assimilation 

      Iversen, Silje Christine; Sperrevik, Ann Kristin; Goux, Olivier (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-26)
      Infrared (IR) and passive microwave (PMW) satellite sea surface temperature (SST) retrievals are valuable to assimilate into high-resolution regional ocean forecast models. Still, there are issues related to these SSTs that need to be addressed to achieve improved ocean forecasts. Firstly, satellite SST products tend to be biased. Assimilating SSTs from different providers can thus cause the ocean ...
