Modeling the Response of Monterey Bay to Diurnal Wind and Tidal Forcing

Abstract

Long-term goals of this project are to improve high-resolution numerical models of the ocean circulation for the regions with complex bottom topography, coastlines and multi-scale physical fields using enhanced grid technology, nested open boundary and, ultimately, data assimilation of new observational data type like current maps from High Frequency (HF) radar installations.
