Interdisciplinary Modeling and Dynamics of Archipelago Straits

Abstract

The general focus of this work is to explore, better understand, model and predict the interactive dynamics and variability of sub-mesoscale and mesoscale features and processes in the Philippine Straits region and their impacts on local ecosystems through i. physical-biogeochemical-acoustical data assimilation of novel multidisciplinary observations, ii. adaptive, multi-scale physical and biogeochemical modeling, iii. process, sensitivity studies based on a hierarchy of simplified simulations and focused modeling.
