BODAS Analysis - Forcing dataset (for MARVL)

Created 23/06/2025

Updated 23/06/2025

The Bluelink Ocean Data Assimilation System (BODAS) is an ensemble optimal interpolation system that uses an ensemble of intraseasonal anomalies from a free running model to estimate the background error covariances (BECs). The ensemble-based BECs are multivariate and inhomogeneous and are shown to reflect the length-scales, the anisotropy and the covariability of mesoscale oceanic processes. This is purely a description of the forcing dataset used within the MARine Virtual Laboratory (MARVL).
