To collect multi-source, multi-platform, heterogeneous data, perform consistent quality control and distribute it in a common format (NetCDF) and in near-real-time (within 24 hours) to the Copernicus Marine Forecasting Centres (MFC), for assimilation into their numerical ocean models, and to any other users.
To supply the MFCs and downstream users with re-processed 25-50-year products in delayed mode. In addition to the near-real-time products, these delayed-mode products are useful for model validation or assimilation in ocean reanalysis and climate studies.
The In Situ TAC welcomes this week a new set of measurements: Wave spectral data and High Frequency radar radials.Please…
