A pilot variational coupled reanalysis based on the CESAM climate model
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Variational data assimilation of in‐situ and satellite ocean data and reanalysis atmospheric data into an intermediate complexity Earth system model is possible by adjusting the surface fluxes and internal model parameters. This pilot application requires nearly complete information on the atmospheric state for synchronization.
