4dvar: weighted least squares optimization
Find forward model state, L (u,v,w,t,s,p)
Model inputs are control parameters, u
(e.g. param. coef., ini. cond., atm. state)
Define cost function: here a weighted model-observation misfit
J (u) = Σ{Li - obsi}2 σi -2 + Σ{uj - datai}2 σj
-2
Model state, and thus cost, is a function of controls: L(u)
Optimization problem: adjust controls to minimize the cost
Adjoint model gives the gradient of J wrt u: ∇uJ(u)
Use this information to infer update, ∆u, of controls:
un+1 = un + ∆u and iteratively minimize cost
method:

SOSE is a science resource, not short-term prediction
• Sequential methods optimize over short periods (24 hours to 24 days) and then patch solutions together
• Our assimilation window is multi-year, so there are no unphysical jumps in the governing dynamics. There are no terms nudging towards observations either. SOSE obeys model dynamics and thermodynamics first (hard-constraint).

maximize benefit of SO observations
• Temporal relevance: – The 2005 to 2007 solution is available on the server – The goal is now to attain a 2008 to "present# solution (relevance to
cDrake and DIMES). Now optimizing 2008 and 2009. Will extend to 2010 as soon as feasible.
• Relevance to atmospheric and biogeochemistry community: – Add in DIC package (Dutkiewicz) cycling DIC, Alk, PO4, DOP, O2, and
Fe and constrain to observed concentrations – Constrain to atmospheric observations, providing feedback to
atmospheric community.
• Relevance to observational community – Working to minimize model representation error, account for error
covariances, and improve control vector (i.e. get most out of obs.). – Development goal is to advance state estimation to a level where it is
worthy of being made part of an observational plan (as oppose to being part of a modeling or analysis plan) making it relevant to everyone

• Ocean state estimation corrected many of the known biases in NCEP atmospheric flux
• Ocean is an integrator of air-sea fluxes. Atmospheric reanalysis can be improved using ocean observations.
• SOSE derived atmospheric surface state is not worse than reanalysis and comes with consistent full ocean state – making it a desirable product for studies of water mass formation, eddy heat flux, etc.

• Future work: better constrain to atmospheric state – assimilate atmospheric observations.
• Providing correlation length-scales to atmospheric constraints using method of Weaver and Courtier 2001. Future work is to better determine what these length scales should be.

4.5 years of velocity observations to 1000m from SADCP
Mean obs. transport of ACC in top 1000m is 95 ± 2 Sv. (71% of canonical 134 Sv)

At 1000m mean speeds are still strong 10-20cm/s.

Firing et al. JGR 2011
SADCP, LADCP, and SOSE are used to explore vertical structure functions.
A number of functions give good fits explaining > 75% of variance, but no one function works everywhere.
Using exponential fits to extrapolate to full depth yields an estimated ACC transport of 154 ± 38 Sv.

ACC transport well correlated at each longitude
• Development: now constraining to cDrake inverted echo sounders, meaning heat content is now well constrained at Drake Passage.
• Future work: examine heat content and heat divergence along ACC and heat divergence along ACC

MODEL SENSITIVITY CALCULATIONS IN FORWARD & REVERSE
Forward finite difference approach
• Take a Green!s function perturbation (e.g., zonal wind stress, δ ) and determine its impact on model output (e.g., Drake Passage transport, TrDP)
• Subtraction from an unperturbed run determines:
• Requires many perturbations, ,
to determine impact on output
Reverse/adjoint approach • Calculate full time-varying sensitivity field: Let , and the adjoint runs back in time to yield:
J = TrDP u = τ(x, y, t)

∇uJ (u) = ∂TrDP

Summary
The adjoint model highlights locations where the ocean is especially responsive to the atmospheric state
Response to a wind stress perturbation: • Barotropic waves significantly increase Drake Passage
transport over first day or two and then decays over the period of about 10 days. Sensitivity magnitudes show topographic influence.
• Sensitivity after 10 days shows mesoscale structure that is especially enhanced where the ACC interacts with topography. The structure is indicative of a sensitivity to wind-stress curl.
• Sensitivity to wind-stress near continents: increase ACC transport by raising sea surface height on coasts north of the ACC, and decreasing it around Antarctica
![Page 35: SOSE and related activities - CLIVARGriesel, Gille, Mazloff. To be published in JGR Differences between popular MDT ... using MDT products as reference velocity, we could not conserve](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051811/601c581b2f353317cd00587a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Implications
• Magnitude of ocean response to a wind perturbation
has mesoscale structure, thus the ocean response to a changing wind forcing (climate) depends on magnitude and specific structure of change.
• All atmospheric observations (constraints) are not equal in the information provided to ocean research. In general, the ocean circulation is more responsive to atmosperic momentum flux in regions of complex topography.

Summary of development wrt constraints
• Status quo – In situ T and S – SST from radiometers
• Working to improve uncertainty estimate – Altimeters and geodetic satellites
• Recently added – Sea-ice concentration (as a direct constraint) – Inverted echo sounders
• To add – Atmospheric measurements, Bottom pressure ,Velocity – What else is available?: chemistry, ice thickness,
tomography, tracer release (Ledwell), float trajectories
