Regional Model Studies Nested in HYCOM. Application to the West Florida Shelf and the Cariaco Basin using ROMS

Abstract

Our long term goals are the development of robust model nesting strategies for coupling regional and global ocean circulation models and the implementation of data assimilation schemes suitable for the regional ocean models. From the perspective of advancing coastal ocean science we seek to improve our understanding on how the deep-ocean and the coastal ocean interact.
