Abstract: The 4D variational (4DVAR) assimilation numerical ocean model research is proposed. This model for Taiwan Straits (TWS) is based on Regional Ocean Model System (ROMS). The background of the 4DVAR method is introduced and the development process of assimilation system is presented. In the present research, the model assimilated with Sea Surface Temperature (SST) data of HY-2 satellite (Qi, 2012; Xu, 2013) which is the first marine environmental monitoring satellite of China. In this paper, the model processes from Feb. 1 to Feb. 7, 2014 with one-day assimilation time window and root mean square error (RMSE) reduces averagely by 14.7%.
