TL;DR: In this article, a multi-reanalysis ensemble is used to estimate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the ocean state and to estimate uncertainty levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent development of the Met Office operational ocean forecasting system: an overview and assessment of the new Global FOAM forecasts
Edward W. Blockley,Matthew Martin,A. J. McLaren,A. G. Ryan,Jennifer Waters,D. J. Lea,Isabelle Mirouze,K. A. Peterson,Alistair Sellar,D. Storkey +9 more
TL;DR: The Forecast Ocean Assimilation Model (FOAM) is an operational ocean analysis and forecast system run daily at the Met Office. as discussed by the authors provides modelling capability in both deep ocean and coastal shelf sea regimes using the NEMO (Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean) ocean model as its dynamical core.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ocean heat content variability and change in an ensemble of ocean reanalyses
Matthew D. Palmer,Christopher D. Roberts,Magdalena Balmaseda,You-Soon Chang,G. Chepurin,Nicolas Ferry,Yosuke Fujii,Simon A.

Peterson,Andrea Storto,Takahiro Toyoda,Maria Valdivieso,Guillaume Vernieres,Ou Wang,Yan Xue +23 more
TL;DR: An overview of the temporal and spatial characteristics of OHC variability and change as represented by an ensemble of dynamical and statistical ocean reanalyses (ORAs) is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atmosphere drives recent interannual variability of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation at 26.5°N
Christopher D. Roberts,Jennifer Waters,K. A. Peterson,Matthew D. Palmer,Gerard McCarthy,Eleanor Frajka-Williams,Keith Haines,D. J. Lea,Matthew Martin,D. Storkey,Edward W. Blockley,Hao Zuo +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used simulations based on the Met Office Forecast Ocean Assimilation Model (FOAM) to diagnose the relative importance of atmospheric forcings and internal ocean dynamics in driving the anomalous geostrophic circulation of 2009/2010.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Mean State and Variability of the North Atlantic Circulation: A Perspective From Ocean Reanalyses
Laura Jackson,Clotilde Dubois,Gael Forget,Keith Haines,Matthew Harrison,Doroteaciro Iovino,Armin Köhl,Davi Mignac,Simona Masina,K. A. Peterson,Christopher G. Piecuch,Christopher D. Roberts,Jon Robson,Andrea Storto,Takahiro Toyoda,Maria Valdivieso,Chris Wilson,Yiguo Wang,Hao Zuo +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an ensemble of global ocean reanalyses to examine the time mean state and interannualdecadal variability of the North Atlantic ocean since 1993, and examined aspects of the circulation including convection, AMOC and gyre strengths, and transports.
