  Numeric ocean model off NW Iberia at 4km and 1.3km of horizontal spatial resolution - 2013

Operational configuration of ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System) off NorthWest Iberia. In this configuration, two grids are nested during online execution. Data from the coarser (4 km horizontal resolution) 236 x 181 grid force the lateral open boundaries of the finer (~1.3 km) 312 x 167 embedded grid. Outputs at hourly and daily temporal resolution.

Statement

Operational configuration of ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System), a free surface primitive equation ocean model, maintained and executed by the Instituto Español de Oceanografía in the frame of the Iberian Margin Ocean Observatory. In this configuration, two grids are nested during online execution through the employ of the AGRIF version of the model (Penven et al., 2006). Data from the coarser (4 km horizontal resolution) 236 x 181 grid force the lateral open boundaries of the finer (~1.3 km) 312 x 167 embedded grid. Outputs at hourly and daily temporal resolution. More details and some validations of this configuration can be found in Otero et al. (2013; 2009).

The ocean model is forced at the surface with meteorological data from a 12 km spatial and 1 h temporal resolution configuration of the Weather, Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, operationally run by the regional meteorological agency MeteoGalicia and disseminated through the RAIA Observatory.

Every day, and once the meteorological forecasts are available, these data are downloaded and interpolated to the grid of the ocean model configuration, which restarts from the output of the previous day. After the execution has finished, hourly ROMS standard outputs are interpolated from their original terrain following coordinates to levels of constant depth (to facilitate interpretation) and subsequently, converted to the NetCDF Climate and Forecast (CF) convention format (http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/).
