We could also statistically analyze the ouput of their models. Developing a data assimilation technique directed to fit the ecosystem model to satellite chlorophyll a concentration data. The data assimilation technique to be developed for utilization in other ecosystem models. Satellite data on chlorophyll a concentration. Data on surface temperature, cloudiness, wind velocity as well as fields of temperature, salinity and nutrients in the seasonal and main thermoclines to be utilized in our circulation model.
Primary production represents the input way of inorganic carbon into the ocean organic carbon pool.
Morevover, predictions of photosynthetic parameters may be for the first time possible. A technique based on remotely sensed sea surface temperature and wind speed allowing estimation of Zml has recently been proposed by Yan et al. Alternatively, Zml could be provided by a large-scale circulation model. In providing a comparison between Zml predictions from Yan's and Shirshov Institute large-scale circulation models. To facilitate programming of flight schedules, the meeting must be held close a weekend.
