What For?■ The BP – Scripps GOM project:
o Predict the front of the loop current in the Gulf of Mexico
o Deploy gliders and HF radars and use data assimilation
o 1/10o Gulf of Mexico MITgcm forced by ECCO
■ Ensemble Kalman Filtering with MITgcm: o No update of the background covariance in the
adjoint method o Proved better for forecasting o Add new assimilation capability to MITgcm
(complement adjoint?)

Analysis Step
Ensemble Kalman Filtering (EnKF)
Forecast Step • Correct forecast
• Update error covariance
• Kalman Gain

■ Easily portable■ Provide estimates of the background
covariance matrix■ Offers more flexibility from an OI to Ensemble Kalman
filters
Pros & Cons

■ Rank deficient Localization and Inflation are needed!

■ A software facility employing different EnKFs
■ DART is designed so that incorporating new models and observations requires minimal coding of a small set of interface routines
■ Advanced localization/inflation schemes■ Operationally used with CAM and WRF at
NCAR, MA2 at GFDL, and elsewhere …

■ The machinery is now working
■ Early testing shows good fit
■ ... Will be tested with real data
