TITLE : Improvement of the methods of combination of the data Argo and altimetry for the follow-up of the long-term variations of the ocean

ABSTRACT : The objective of this thesis is to analyze the oceanic variability in temperature and salinity over the period 1993-2008. For that purpose, it is necessary to use the maximum of observations available, namely in situ data of temperature and salinity, but also satellite data of sea surface temperature and sea height.
To reach our objective, several steps are necessary: create a solid and coherent database, compare datasets to have a better physical understanding of the contents of every type of data then develop methods of combination to assemble the datasets and take advantage of their respective qualities for the description of the oceanic variability.
Armor3d Field, combination of satellite fields and in situ profiles exist for several years. The recent dataset supplied by Argo profilers allows improving considerably the parameters of the combination, to cover a better geographical zone and to have deeper fields. We show that both types of measures are needed, even to study the large scale variability of the ocean.
