How does 4DVar data assimilation affect the vertical representation of mesoscale eddies? A case study with observing system simulation experiments (OSSEs) using ROMS v3.9

<p>Accurate estimates and forecasts of ocean eddies in key regions such as western boundary currents are important for weather and climate, biology, navigation, and search and rescue. The dynamic nature of mesoscale eddies requires data assimilation to produce accurate eddy timings and locatio...
