  abstract = {{W}e present three types of experiments of sequential assimilation of altimetric data in a linear tropical {A}tlantic model, using an analysis technique we developed. {I}n the first experiments we assimilate dynamic height fields calculated from simulated data in order to study the impacts of assimilations. {I}n the second ones we assimilate dynamic height anomaly fields calculated from simulated data, and finally, in the third ones we use sea level anomaly fields obtainend from altimetric data from {G}eosat. {P}erturbations are observed in the {E}astern part of the basin, due to {K}elvin waves artificially generated in the {W}est {E}quatorial basin, due to {K}elvin waves artificially generated in the {W}est {E}quatorial basin. {H}owever, we show that altimetric data may be useful for improving model simulations in the tropics when appropriate assimilation techniques are used.
