- W4236086578 abstract "Abstract. As with other western boundary currents globally, the East Australian Current (EAC) is inherently dynamic making it a challenge to model and predict. For the EAC region, we combine a high-resolution state-of-the-art numerical ocean model with a variety of traditional and newly available observations using an advanced variational data assimilation scheme. The numerical model is configured using the Regional Ocean Modelling System (ROMS 3.4) and takes boundary forcing from the BlueLink ReANalysis (BRAN3). For the data assimilation we use an Incremental Strong-Constraint 4-Dimensional Variational (IS4D-Var) scheme. This paper describes the data assimilative model configuration that achieves an optimised minimisation of the difference between the modelled solution and the observations to give a dynamically-consistent `best-estimate' of the ocean state over a 2-year period. The reanalysis is shown to represent both assimilated and non-assimilated observations well. It achieves mean spatially-averaged RMS residuals with the observations of 7 cm for SSH and 0.4 °C for SST over the assimilation period. The time-mean RMS residual for subsurface temperature measured by Argo floats is a maximum of 1 °C between water depths of 100–300 m and smaller throughout the rest of the water column. Velocities at several offshore and continental shelf moorings are well represented in the reanalysis with complex correlations between 0.8–1 for all observations in the upper 500 m. Surface radial velocities from a high-frequency radar array are assimilated and the reanalysis provides surface velocity estimates with complex correlations with observed velocities of 0.8–1 across the radar footprint. Comparison with independent (non-assimilated) shipboard CTD cast observations shows a marked improvement in the representation of the subsurface ocean in the reanalysis, with the RMS residual in potential density reduced to about half of the residual with the free-running model in the upper eddy-influenced part of the water column. This shows that information is successfully propagated from observed variables to unobserved regions as the assimilation system uses the model dynamics to determine covariance, such that the ocean state better fits and is in balance with the observations. This is the first study to generate a reanalysis of the region at such a high resolution, making use of an unprecedented observational data set and using an assimilation method that uses the time-evolving model physics to adjust the model in a dynamically consistent way. As such, the reanalysis potentially represents a marked improvement in our ability to capture important circulation dynamics in the EAC. The reanalysis is being used to study EAC dynamics, observation impact in state-estimation and as forcing for a variety of downscaling studies." @default.
