A Potential Density Gradient Dependent Analysis Scheme for Ocean Multiscale Data Assimilation

Figure 6

(a) The background; (b) observational position (brown points) at 300 m; color shade is temperature increment of observation relative to background using Kriging interpolation; (c) analyzed temperature increment using old scheme; (d) similar to (c) but using new scheme; (e) vertical temperature increment profile at point (134.512°E, 14.454°N); black: observation, blue: result of old scheme, and red: result of new scheme; (f) zoom out of (e) between 0 and 500 m.
