UPPER OCEAN HEAT CONTENT MONITORING & FORECASTING • Routine analysis and forecasting of heat content measures in Australian region based on BLUElink OceanMAPS http://godae.bom.gov.au/oceanmaps_analysis/ocean_hcf/ocean_hcf.shtml http://godae.bom.gov.au/oceanmaps_analysis/ocean_hc/ocean_hc.shtml Applications in the Australian region GODAE Final Symposium, 12 – 15 November 2008, Nice, France

  19. CLAM COUPLED LIMITED AREA MODELLING AND PREDICTION SYSTEM • Regional version of BLUElink ocean model coupled to Bureau of Meteorology TC Prediction Model TCLAPS • Designed to investigate impact of coupling on ocean and weather prediction skill. • Main application is directed towards improving tropical cyclone intensity forecasts. Applications in the Australian region GODAE Final Symposium, 12 – 15 November 2008, Nice, France

  24. Work Ahead • Research to Operations • Analysis of key issues: TC translation speed, inner core - ocean interactions, positive-negative feedback. • Improve models performance. • Ocean observing system. • Continue to have the international community involved in this type of studies. • Only possible if real-time sea height fields able to resolve mesoscale from altimetry are available GODAE Final Symposium, 12 – 15 November 2008, Nice, France
