Figure 1. The
sound speed profile from an XBT cast (a, true model, black curve) was used to
generate a synthetic data set (b), to be used as the observed data in a test of
the inversion algorithm. The starting models (red curves) are 0 Hz and 5 Hz low
pass filtered versions of the true model. The green curve is the inversion from
the 0 Hz starting model, and the inversion result from the 5 Hz starting model
(not shown) is effectively coincident with the true model, resulting in a data
residual (c, difference between observed and synthetic, magnified one thousand
times) that is extremely small.
