Development of barotropic models for the GIN Sea

Barotropic ocean models are developed for deep oceans, with arbitrary topography and basin geometry, on a sphere. A special adaptation is made for the Greenland-Iceland-Norwegian (GIN) Seas with closed lateral boundaries. The models are tested for conservation, accuracy and physical soundness at suc...
