- summary: Gulf of Tonkin seasonal cycle from the NOR run. This experiment is the same as the CONTROL run but without the rivers forcing. The ROMS model domain covers the entire South China Sea (SCS), but this file is a subset that targets the Gulf of Tonkin region. The spatial resolution of the model is approximately 6.5 km in the horizontal direction, and 40 generalized terrain-following levels define a variable vertical resolution that behaves like equally-spaced sigma coordinates in shallow regions for the set of parameters chosen. The SCS model was gradually nudged to temperature, salinity, and currents from Global HYCOM in a nudging layer of ~130 km width where the nudging timescales decrease from 2 days at the lateral boundaries to zero at the interior. Tidal forcing is also included in the barotropic forcing using the nine most dominant tidal constituents from the Oregon State University Tidal Inversion (Egbert & Erofeeva, 2002). At the surface, the model is forced with air-sea momentum, heat, and freshwater fluxes, determined using the bulk formulae parameterizations for the marine boundary layer as described in Fairall et al. (2003). The atmospheric fields required by these parameterizations are obtained from the ERA-interim analysis at the highest spatial and temporal resolution available (3 hours at ⅛ degree).
