North Atlantic Modeling with Multi-Layer Primitive Equation Models: DAMEE-NAB

The long-term goal is to perform a realistic, fully eddy-resolving, wind-and buoyancy-forced numerical simulation of the North Atlantic basin with the Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model (MICOM) (Bleck and Chassignet, 1994) with data assimilation capabilities. Objectives are: a) To evaluate the m...

Description
Summary:The long-term goal is to perform a realistic, fully eddy-resolving, wind-and buoyancy-forced numerical simulation of the North Atlantic basin with the Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model (MICOM) (Bleck and Chassignet, 1994) with data assimilation capabilities. Objectives are: a) To evaluate the model's performance in reproducing the oceanic circulation, with a special focus on the coastal regions; b) To evaluate the model's forecast skills and usefulness in providing boundary conditions for regional models.
