Short summary
We assess the impact of assimilating the SST data on the Baltic forecast potential. By assimilating SST, we find the quality of SST forecast is significantly enhanced. The temperature in water above 100 m and salinity in the deep layers have been also largely and slightly improved, respectively. In comparison with independent data, the SLA is better predicted because of assimilating SST. Besides, the forecast of sea-ice concentration is improved considerably during the sea-ice formation period.
