  abstract = {{A}n optimal control approach was carried out to investigate the influence of perturbations of baroclinic coastal jets which are located upstream of the observation site. {T}wo academic numerical experiments were considered: the intrusion of the buoyancy anomaly within an established density current along a straight coast (experiments {A}), and the interaction of a coastal current with a shelf topography (experiments {B}). {W}e explored the sensitivity of the forcing retrieval to the spatial distribution of observations (experiments {A}) and to the temporal sampling of the forcing (experiments {B}), using a 4{D}-var formalism. {T}he sensitivity of numerical simulations is discussed in the framework of analytical solutions. {T}he results provide insight into how observational network and data assimilation method would impact the realistic modelling of coastal jets and the shelf slope exchanges.},
