The local ensemble transform Kalman filter and the running-in-place algorithm applied to a global ocean general circulation model

The most widely used methods of data assimilation in large-scale oceanography, such as the Simple Ocean Data Assimilation (SODA) algorithm, specify the background error covariances and thus are unable to refine the weights in the assimilation as the circulation changes. In contrast, the more computa...
