The science and art of modeling is deeply rooted in our desire to better describe and
understand the world around us: it is imperative that we have some rudimentary knowledge …

The purpose of this study is to find a combination of optimal numerical algorithms for time-
step** and mode-splitting suitable for a high-resolution, free-surface, terrain-following …

Progress in computer technology has made it possible to make larger calculations with finer
grid-scale resolution, and physical processes that were beyond the reach of coarse …

The DieCAST ocean model is applied to a study of the circulation in the Black Sea, using
1/12° horizontal resolution and with 20 vertical layers. Boundary forcings are monthly wind …

Abstract The modern Sea Surface Height database using altimetric observations from
satellites contains very informative views of the Loop Current and its eddy field in the Gulf of …

The results of an intercomparison experiment performed with five numerical ocean models
of different architecture are presented. While all models are able to simulate the large-scale …

Water quality degradation in harbour domains can have an important negative impact from
an economic, touristic and environmental point of view. In that sense, water quality …

The Northeast Caucasian Current (NCC) is the northeastern part of the cyclonic Rim Current
(RC) in the Black Sea. As it sometimes approaches the narrow shelf very closely …

Abstract The Gulf of Mexico (GoM) is home to some of the most energetic eddies in the
ocean. Warm‐core rings detach from the Loop‐Current and drift through the basin …

We survey progress in modeling of the North Atlantic Ocean since a set of reviews last
appeared around a dozen years ago. Predictions that a threshold in resolution was yet to be …
