UK data applications
Data from the Argo array are used in a variety of applications. Here we present a selection of the scientific and operational uses of Argo, with an emphasis on work within the UK. Many of these would not have been possible before the advent of Argo.
Argo Projects
- MONACO
- Constraining climate predictions using Argo data
- Monitoring the ocean state: heat and freshwater content, and global sea level
- Seasonal-to-decadal prediction
- Operational ocean forecasting
Synergies between Argo and other observational platforms
- Satellite measurements of sea surface height
- Satellite gravity field observations
- Satellite measurements of radiation
- Improving our understanding of sea surface temperature
- Research ship measurements of temperature and salinity
