This paper summarizes recent efforts on Observing System Evaluation (OS-Eval) by
the Ocean Data Assimilation and Prediction (ODAP) communities such as GODAE
OceanView and CLIVAR-GSOP. It provides some examples of existing OS-Eval
methodologies, and attempts to discuss the potential and limitation of the existing
approaches. Observing System Experiment (OSE) studies illustrate the impacts of the
severe decrease in the number of TAO buoys during 2012–2014 and TRITON buoys
since 2013 on ODAP system performance. Multi-system evaluation of the impacts of
assimilating satellite sea surface salinity data based on OSEs has been performed to
demonstrate the need to continue and enhance satellite salinity missions. Impacts of
underwater gliders have been assessed using Observing SystemSimulation Experiments
(OSSEs) to provide guidance on the effective coordination of the western North Atlantic
observing system elements. OSSEs are also being performed under H2020 AtlantOS project with .....
