Toward a Global 1/25 degree HYCOM Ocean Prediction System with Tides
Abstract
The overall technical goal is to implement a 1/25 deg horizontal resolution global ocean prediction system based on the HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) with tides and dynamic sea ice. The scientific goals include but are not limited to a) evaluation of the internal tides representation in support of field programs, b) data assimilation in the presence of tides, c) evaluation of the model's ability to provide useful boundary conditions to high resolution coastal models, d) interaction of the open ocean with ice, e) shelf-deep ocean interactions, f) upper ocean physics including mixed layer/sonic depth representation, g) mixing, etc.
