6 Estimation of EOF Expansion Coeffiients from Inomplete Data 1. Introdution Among the earliest published reports on the use of empirial orthogonal funtions (EOFs) in oeanography are inluded suh artiles as Moore (1974), Kundu, et al. (1975) and Davis (1976). Sine then, the use of EOFs has beome inreasingly ommon for suh purposes as desribing and quantifying oeani variability (e.g., Halliwell and Mooers, 1979), in examining oean dynamis (e.g., Kundu, et al., 1975), in providing ompat haraterization of oeanographi data (e.g., Tolstoy, et al., 1991), and in examining interrelationships between surfae and subsurfae parameters (e.g., Carnes, et al., 1990). In this note we present a tehnique for using EOFs for interpolating or extrapolating missing data in oean profiles. This tehnique should prove partiularly useful for extrapolating shallow oean data profiles -- say, from shallow CTD (ondutivity-temperature-depth) asts or from expendable probes -- to deeper depths. The theory behind EOF omputations is straightforward. (See, for example, Lagerloef and Bernstein, 1988, for a partiularly ompat and luid desription.) As an aid to understanding our tehnique desribed in setion 2, we present a summary of the EOF omputation proedures here. Suppose we have N profiles with measurements at K disrete depths. Eah profile may be onsidered a vetor f., with omponents fk,. A set of perturbation profiles f'. is formed by subtrating the mean profile T from eah of the observed profiles. From these profiles the K x N matrix [F] is reated, having olumns whih are the N perturbation profiles f'.. Next the K x K ovariane matrix [R] is alulated from the [F'] matrix aording to [R)] =(1N) [F] [F] T, where [FIT is the transpose of [F']. Then the eigenvalues Ak and eigenvetors ek are found for the matrix equation [R] [E] = P[L [E]. [I is the matrix of eigenvalues 12

7 and [E] is the matrix of eigenvetors [E] = [e, e 2... e..,ekj where e. is a olumn vetor representing the mth eigenmode. eigenmodes may be alulated. A maximum of K The original data may be expanded in terms of these new basis funtions em aording to the relationship [F] = [El [C] (1) where the. elements of [C] are known as the expansion oeffiients, the modal amplitudes, or the prinipal omponents. The oeffiient matrix [C] is omputed from [C] = [E] T [F]. (2) The trae of the matrix [R] is the total variane of the data set. Sine Tr [R] = z x,, the relative value of eah xm is the fration of the variane of the data represented by the assoiated eigenvetor. If the eigenvalues are ordered by size (that is, by fration of the variane explained by the orresponding eigenvetor), it is usually found that only a limited number of eigenmodes are neessary to aount for a very large fration of the variane, say 3 to 5 (e.g., Kundu, et al., 1975; Servain and Legler, 1986; Fukumori and Wunsh, 1991). For many oeanographi appliations it is satisfatory to retain only those first M eigenmodes that aount for, say, 90 or 95% of the variane and subsequent profiles (the "syntheti profiles," as they were alled in Carnes, et al., 1990) are onstruted using only M eigenvetors. If a given profile f has data at eah of the K depths, estimation of the prinipal omponents is straightforward and is given by eq. (2) above. However, if the profile is inomplete, a modified proedure must be used. In this note we present one suh proedure based upon least squares minimization. 2. TIeory Aording to eq. (1) above, a "syntheti profile" p may be onstruted from M predetermined eigenvetors em aording to the equations Pk = "k + 1:m ei, where k is the depth index, k = 1,..., K. If all depths are present, eq. (2) shows the oeffiients, are alulated from the relationship 2

8 Cm -- Ek emk P'k" In pratie, however, some of the K depth values may be missing: the profile may not start lose enough to the surfae, or it may have terminated at too shallow a depth or there may have been noise ontamination within a ertain depth range. If only an oasional value is missing, it may be reonstruted by interpolation and the expansion oeffiients may then be omputed from a omplete data set. However, if interpolation is not satisfatory or feasible, a least-squares minimization approah may be used in whih we determine those priniple omponents m whih minimize the error e, the sum of the squares of the differenes between a perturbation profile P'k = Pk - "k and its "syntheti" reonstrution: C = Ek (P'k - E.m. ek.)2. This involves solving the system of equations ekl ekl e,.., ek e- ' P'k e., ek2 eki C2 P'k ek (3) ekm ekl... ek ep CM p'k C~ The resulting set of oeffiients {Cm} onstitute the desired estimates of the true oeffiients. 3. Example As an example of the appliation of this tehnique, onsider the 28 temperature profiles shown in Fig. la. Table 1 lists the measurement depths of the profiles. Fig. lb shows the mean temperature profile. The data represent a set of CJ-D temperature profiles taken in July during an experiment in the Sargasso Sea, but any other omparable data set would do as well for desribing our tehnique. Shown in Fig. 2 are the first five EOF modes (i.e., e 1 through e.), whih jointly explain 98% of the variane apparent in Fig. I. The first five prinipal omponents for eah perturbation profile in Fig. 1 as estimated from eq. (2) are given in Fig. 3a, and the root-mean-square (RMS) differene between the true profiles and the syntheti profiles generated with these five prinipal omponents and the five eigenfuntions in Fig. 2 is given in Fig. 3b. Using the five eigenfuntions, the maximum RMS deviation is about 0.25 OC near 50 nm, whih is loated somewhat below the base of 3

9 the mixed layer at around 30 m. Otherwise the mean deviation is typially less than 0.15 oc. First onsider the impat on the oeffiient values of having missing data near the surfae. We estimated the prinipal omponents for six separate ases with inreasingly large amounts of missing data, as desribed in Table 2. The resulting oeffiients, normalized by their true values omputed from the omplete profiles (Fig. 3a), are shown in Fig. 4, and the RMS differenes between the true profiles and their orresponding syntheti profiles onstruted from five modes are given in Fig. 5. Not surprisingly, as the range of the missing data points beomes larger, in general the deviation of the estimated oeffiients from their true values beomes larger, as does the RMS differene aross the depth range of the missing data. However, the oeffiients of ertain modes are muh less sensitive than the oeffiients of other modes. The oeffiients of the first mode are least sensitive to data deletion, but by the time the first 100 m of data are removed (Case 5), the individual oeffiients begin to deviate notieably from their true values. Mode 4 oeffiients were the most sensitive, followed by mode 5, then mode 3, and mode 2. This orrelates well in a qualitative sense with the loation of extrema in the eigenfuntions of Fig. 2. However, even with the upper 100 (Case 5) to 150 (Case 6) m of data removed, the RMS deviation is less than 1.7 0C. Notie that the RMS differene below the depth of the missing data atually is less than it is when using the full profiles. This is beause when omplete profiles are used, a trade-off must our in the alulation of the prinipal omponents, where the various eigenfuntions must be fit as well as possible over the full depth range. When the highly strutured upper part of the profile is missing, the remaining portion may be better fit with the eigenfuntions. Next onsider what ours if inreasing amounts of data are missing at the bottom of the profiles. The six ases onsidered are desribed in Table 3, the normalized oeffiients are in Fig. 6, and the RMS differenes are in Fig. 7. Beause there is so muh less struture at the bottom of the profiles, the impat of missing data is less deleterious. In general, as the amount of missing data beomes larger, the deviation of the estimated oeffiients from their true values also beomes larger. However, the deviations are muh smaller in omparison with the estimated oeffiients onstruted with near-surfae data points removed. RMS differenes are also muh smaller; less than 0.3 "C in Case 12 when 1400 m of data were removed from the bottom of eah profile. Again the oeffiients of the first mode are by far the least sensitive to the deletion of data; they do not vary signifiantly from their true values even when a large number of nearbottom data points are missing from the profiles. Modes 2 and 5 are the most sensitive, but their deviations from their respetive true values are muh less than when the surfae values are removed. Deviations in mode 3 inrease quite slowly as the amount of missing data inreases. The RMS differene inreases as the profiles are progressively trunated. The most 4

10 sensitive part of the profiles lies between about 600 to 1200 M, where mode 2 in partiular has onsiderable struture. Deletion of data below this depth range has only a modest impat upon the resulting syntheti profiles. The RMS differene above the trunation depths again tends to be somewhat less than the RMS differene omputed using full depth profiles. Finally, we deleted inreasingly larger amounts of data in the depth ranges entered around 300 m (a minimum in the variability seen in Fig. 1) and around 600 m (a maximum in the variability), as desribed in Tables 4 (Cases 13, 14, and 15) and 5 (Cases 16, 17, and 18). The normalized oeffiients and RMS differenes are given in Figs. 8 and 9 and Figs. 10 and 11. Both of these sets of results show deletion of data inreases the RMS differenes between the syntheti profiles and the data over that omputed with omplete data; however, the inrease in the RMS is only in the viinity of the missing data and it is remarkably small. Case 18 was omputed with data between m deleted, but the RMS differene at 500 m inreased less than 0.1 C to about 0.2 a C. 4. Coeffiient Estimation Software To implement the theory desribed above, a FORTRAN subroutine ESTCOE was written and is presented in Appendix A. ESTCOE requires the input of two data files; one ontaining the profiles themselves and the other ontaining the mean profile and eigenvetors assoiated with the area of interest. For eah profile, the system of equations given in eq. (3) is solved for the set of unknown estimated oeffiients {m). The syntheti profile is then onstruted using the estimated oeffiients, the input eigenvetors, and the mean profile. The output oeffiients are stored in a two-dimensional variable, Coef(MaxProffles, Maxz), where the maximum number of profiles and maximum number of depths have been set (by a parameter statement) as MaxProfiles = 100 and Maxz = 50, respetively. The output syntheti profiles are also stored in a two-dimensional variable, pp(maxprofiles, Maxz). Other parameters are returned from ESTCOE. A full desription of these parameters as well as a more omplete desription of the algorithm, format of input files, output parameters, an example driver program, and the FORTRAN ode itself is found in Appendix A. 5. Conluding Remarks We have desribed a least-squares minimization tehnique for estimating prinipal omponents from inomplete oean profile data. An important appliation of this tehnique is to ompute from these estimated prinipal omponents a syntheti profile that interpolates or extrapolates the missing data values. This syntheti profile an then be used in plae of the original inomplete profile, or it an be merged with the original profile in some fashion to fill in the missing data. In partiular, the tehnique lends itself to the problem of 5

11 extrapolating shallow oean data profiles - say, from shallow CTD asts or from expendable probes suh as XBTs (expendable bathythermographs) or AXBTs (the air-launhed XBT) - - to a deeper preseleted depth. A ommonly used alternative is to use limatologial values below the maximum data depth, with some merging proedure to ombine the two. The tehnique presented here, however, makes use of the information ontained in the struture of the observed profile and the orrelations between that upper level struture and the deeper struture to produe what will, in many ases, be a better estimate of the deeper struture than an be made with limatology alone. To illustrate this, we omputed the RMS differene between our 28 temperature profiles in Fig. la and the appropriate GDEM (Teague, et al., 1990) and Levitus (Levitus, 1982) limatologial profiles (Fig. 12). We also simulated the use of T-7 XBTs by utting our 28 profiles off below 700 m, estimating the prinipal omponents as desribed above, and omputing the syntheti profiles from these prinipal omponents (this is Case 10 of Fig. 7). The RMS differene for Case 10 between the syntheti profiles and the data is also reprodued on Fig. 12. The RMS differene for the syntheti profiles is substantially lower than the RMS differenes for either of the limatologies, partiularly below 700 m. Hene, merging the syntheti profiles with the 700 m deep measured profiles would give a better depth-extended data set than using either limatology. These profiles happened to ome from the Sargasso Sea region, but we feel onfident our results would hold elsewhere as well. 6

27 FORTRAN Subroutine ESTCOE I. Introdution Subroutine ESTCOE estimates EOF oeffiients for a set of input data profiles. It also alulates syntheti profiles using the estimated oeffiients. 11. Input ESTCOE requires the unit numbers of 2 input files: inunitl: The mean profile & eigenvetors. inunit2: The data profiles themselves. The mean profile & eigenvetors must be arranged in the first input file as follows: Depth values (of the mean profile) are stored in olumn 1, and the mean profile values at their respetive depths must be storeu, in olurnv 2. An "end of reord" flag is required at the end of the mean profile. This end of reord flag is a pair of real numbers, After the mean profile end r. reord flag, the eigenvetors are stored sequentially. For eah eigenvetor, the depth values should be stored in olumn 1, and the eigenveto, values at their respetive depths irus. appear in olumn 2. An end of reord flag is required at the end of eah ei,6envetor "reord." NOTE: The uumber oi depths in the mean profile/eigenvetor file has been set to 50 via a parameter statement: parameter(maxz = 50). This is also the maximum number of e','-envetors allowed in the mean profile/eigenvetor file. The a: a profiles must be arranged in the seond input file as follows: Depth values are stored in olumn 1, and the data values at their orresponding depths are stored in olumn 2. Depth values should be sequential; that is, a measurement taken at depth 10 m should be stored before a measurement taken at 20 m. An end of reord flag is required at the end of eah profile. NOTE: The number of depths in any single profile has been set to 6000 via a parameter statement: parameter(maxpts = 6000). III. Proessing First, the mean profile & eigenvetor input file is read. The user is asked to deide how many modes will be used to build the oeffiients (and subsequent syntheti profiles). NOTE: The maximum number of modes available is equal to the number of eigenvetors 22

28 in this input file. Then, one at a time, the profiles are read, oeffiients are alulated, and syntheti profiles are onstruted using the following approah: a. When a profile is loaded, it is heked against the eigenvetor depths for missing data points (relative to the eigenvetor depths). If a profile ontains data at depths that are not in the eigenvetor fie, these "extra depths" are ignored in subsequent oeffiient estimation subroutines. If a profile ontains "missing data" relative to the eigenvetor file, this is noted in a "flag" array. b. For a single profile, the system of equations given in eq. (3) is solved using standard Gauss-Jordan elimination routines 1.. The eigenvetor matrix [ee 2... e,] is reated using only the eigenvetor depths where input data values are present. To solve for the oeffiient vetor represented by the set of values {m}, the inverse of the eigenvetor matrix is found. The determinant of the resulting matrix is displayed. If the determinant is too small (relative to a set tolerane of 1.OD-14), the user is warned that there may be large errors in the resulting estimated oeffiients. The user is enouraged to rerun the program using a smaller number of modes with whih to build the oeffiients. d. The right-hand side vetor in eq. (3) is reated using the input profile data, the mean profile, and the eigenvetors. The entire system of equations is then solved. e. The syntheti profile is built using the estimated oeffiients. The oeffiients and the syntheti profile are stored, and the program "loops" through again using the next profile's data. IV. Output Output from ESTCOE onsists of the variables listed below.
