A Community Terrain-Following Ocean Modeling System

Abstract

The efforts in this project are part of an ongoing, collaborative research at several institutions to develop, test, and improve terrain-following ocean models, and to provide support to the growing community of users of this class of models. Advanced numerical algorithms, as well as supporting diagnostic and analysis tools are built, and provided to users for testing in various applications. Interaction with U.S. Navy s modelers who use those models for scientific and operational purposes is essential for the long term goal of improving the Navy s modeling capabilities and in focusing research efforts on the Navy s needs.
