The importance of such an endeavor is recognized by numerous national and international organizations, such as the WMO's World Climate Research Programme (<A href="http://wcrp.wmo.int/">WCRP</A>) and UNESCO's Intergovernmental Oceanographic Comission (<A href="http://ioc.unesco.org/">IOC</A>). These programs have all noted the necessity of synthesizing the diverse remotely-sensed and in-situ observations with known dynamics and thermodynamics through a GCM. ECCO products are in support of the Climate  Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) programme and the Global Ocean Data Assimilation Experiment project (<A href="http://www.usgodae.org/">GODAE</A>).<br />            <td rowspan="2"><p>ECCO was established in 1998 as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (<A href="http://woce.nodc.noaa.gov/wdiu/">WOCE</A>) with the goal of combining a general circulation model (GCM) with diverse observations in order to produce a quantitative depiction of the time-evolving global ocean state.

126            <p><strong><br />June 2009: A new ECCO-GODAE solution</strong></p>
127              <p> The MIT/AER ECCO-GODAE project issued a new solution of its recent version 3 system. The new solution uses atmospheric state fields as control variables in conjunction with an adjoint of the Large and Yeager surface boundary layer scheme, as well as a dynamic/thermodynamical sea-ice model. The solution has been update through the end of 2007 (calculations through end of 2008 are under way). The new solution is available via ECCO's <a href="http://www.ecco-group.org/las/v6/dataset/dataset?catitem=91"  target="_blank">LAS server at MIT</a>.</p>
