Título: | Remote sensing of ocean surface currents: a review of what is being observed and what is being assimilated |

Nevertheless, their observation and forecasting are still difficult. First, no observing system is able to provide direct measurements of global ocean currents on synoptic scales. Consequently, it has been necessary to use sea surface height and sea surface temperature measurements and refer to dynamical frameworks to derive the velocity field. Second, the assimilation of the velocity field into numerical models of ocean circulation is difficult mainly due to lack of data. Recent experiments that assimilate coastal-based radar data have shown that ocean currents will contribute to increasing the forecast skill of surface currents, but require application in multidata assimilation approaches to better identify the thermohaline structure of the ocean. In this paper we review the current knowledge in these fields and provide a global and systematic view of the technologies to retrieve ocean velocities in the upper ocean and the available approaches to assimilate this information into ocean models | Descripción: | Special issue Current perspectives in modelling, monitoring, and predicting geophysical fluid dynamics.-- 31 pages, 15 figures, 1 table | Versión del editor: | https://doi.org/10.5194/npg-24-613-2017 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/158609 | DOI: | 10.5194/npg-24-613-2017 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.5194/npg-24-613-2017 issn: 1023-5809 e-issn: 1607-7946 |
