Global Ocean Prediction Using HYCOM

One important aspect of ocean model design is the choice of the vertical coordinate system. Traditional ocean models use a single coordinate type to represent the vertical, but model comparison exercises performed in Europe (DYnamics of North Atlantic MOdels DYNAMO) (Willebrand et al., 2001) and in...
