A Statistical Approach to an Ocean Circulation Inverse ProblemUnknown Date (has links)
This dissertation presents, applies, and evaluates a statistical approach to an ocean circulation problem. The objective is to produce a map of ocean velocity in the North Atlantic based on sparse measurements along ship tracks, based on a Bayesian approach with a physical model. The Stommel Gulf Stream model which relates the wind stress curl to the transport stream function is the physical model. A Gibbs sampler is used to extract features from the posterior velocity field. To specify the prior, the equation of the Stommel Gulf Stream model on a two-dimensional grid is used.Comparisons with earlier approaches used by oceanographers are also presented. / A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Statistics in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. / Summer Semester, 2007. / JULY 5, 2007. / MCMC, Gibbs Sampler, Gulf Stream / Includes bibliographical references. / Fred W.
