Initialization of an enso forecast system using a parallelized ensemble filter
As a first step toward coupled ocean-atmosphere data assimilation, a parallelized ensemble filter is implemented in a new stochastic hybrid coupled model. The model consists of...- publication PDF

Internal climate variability modulates decadal changes in ocean...
The ocean removes man-made (anthropogenic) carbon from the atmosphere and thereby mitigates climate change. Observations from global hydrographic surveys reveal the spatial and...- publication PDF
