This talk will present a general view of the Brazillian REMO group in physical oceanography and operational oceangraphy in the South Atlantic. It will focus on the REMO ocean data assimilation system (RODAS) based on the Ensemble Optimal Interpolation method and the work by researchers from NERSC and the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP/CAS). Some preliminary results will be also presented in an attempt to improve the current system.
