Data assimilation
Yes
Assimilation scheme
SAM2 (SEEK Kernel) bias correction 3D-VAr and Incremental Analysis Update (IAU).
Data assimilated
CMEMS OSTIA SST + CMEMS Sea Ice Concentration + CMEMS SLA + in situ profile from CMEMS database + MDT adjusted based on CNES-CLS13 + WOA 2013 climatology (temperature and salinity) below 2000 m (assimilation using a non-Gaussian error at depth)
Atmospheric or Biogeochemical forcings
-operational forcing : 3 hours from ECMWF -Formulation Bulk CORE
Runoffs
Updated runoff Dai et al., 2009 + runoff fluxes coming from Greenland and Antarctica + adding of a trend (2.2mm/year) to the runoff
Open boundary conditions
No
