Description
Summary:Project: Simulations with the 1/20° nested Atlantic Ocean ocean-sea-ice model VIKING20X - This project provides output for simulations conducted with the 1/20° nested Atlantic Ocean model configuration VIKING20X. It is performed under atmospheric forcing of the past decades, simulating the Atlantic Ocean circulation and hydrography variability on daily to multi-decadal timescales with a spatial resolution sufficient to capture mesoscale processes up to subarctic latitudes. The model configuration is based on the Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean (NEMO; https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1464816) code version 3.6, in combination with the Louvain la Neuve Ice Model (LIM2; https://doi.org/10.1029/97JC00480). The global domain at 1/4° resolution (ORCA025; https://doi.org/10.1007/s10236-006-0082-1) embeds the eddy-rich 1/20° nest using the two-way nesting technique Adaptive Grid Refinement In Fortran (AGRIF; https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cageo.2007.01.009). The nest covers the Atlantic Ocean from 33.5°S to ...
