<meta name="description" content="Welcome to the Estimation of the |
| 7 |
Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO) project homepage. ECCO is a consortium |
| 8 |
involving the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), the Jet Propulsion |
| 9 |
Laboratory (JPL/NASA), the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO/SDSC) and the Institut |
| 10 |
fuer Meereskunde at the University of Hamburg (IfM). It is funded by the National |
| 11 |
Oceanographic Partnership Program (NOPP). The long term goal of ECCO is to provide |
| 12 |
a high resolution coupled ocean/sea-ice/biochemical (and ultimately, consistent |
| 13 |
atmospheric) state estimate to a wide community." /> |

<p class="headergray">April 2006: ECCO puts focus on Southern Ocean</p> |
| 97 |
<p> In a collaboration with the San Diego Computer Center (SDSC) |
| 98 |
ECCO embarks on producing a Southern Ocean state estimate based |
| 99 |
on the adjoint method. After successfully tackling technical difficulties in |
| 100 |
setting up an adjoint model at 1/6 degree horizontal resolution which can |
| 101 |
run efficiently on 600 pocessors of SDSC's IBM Power-4 "DataStar" production has begun by fitting the MIT general circulation model (MITgcm) |
| 102 |
to a variety of observation during the year 2004. |
| 103 |
The work led by MIT's Matthew Mazloff was featured in the |
| 104 |
April 2006 issue of the SDSC Nuggets magazine |
| 105 |
(<a href="http://www.sdsc.edu/nuggets/200604_nuggets.html" target="_blank">"Predicting the State of the Ocean")</a> and Issue 4, Febbruary 2006 of SDSC Thread <a href="http://www.sdsc.edu/us/newsletter/common/newsletter.php?issue=2006-02&corner=fstory" target="_blank">("Estimating the State of the Southern Ocean")</a> by Matthew Mazloff.</p> |
