## Abstract This paper studies the sensitivity of global ocean analyses to two flow‐dependent formulations of the background‐error standard deviations (σ^b^) for temperature and salinity in a three‐dimensional variational data assimilation (3D‐Var) system. The first formulation is based on an empir

## Abstract This article reviews a range of leading methods to model the background error covariance matrix (the **B**‐matrix) in modern variational data assimilation systems. Owing partly to its very large rank, the **B**‐matrix is impossible to use in an explicit fashion in an operational setting
