摘要：
A method is suggested for estimating velocities by combining observations of a continuously distributed tracer and a circulation model output (background velocity field). A theoretical error analysis is provided and checked by simulations. The estimate reduces the model error by about 12-32% and the estimation procedure turns out to be of high computational efficiency. In addition, a compatibility measure between data and model is introduced which is also tested by Simulations. (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
