Description:

  • summary: ROMS hindcast for the WEIO region. The model domain spans the region 6.7 S - 6.7 N, 38.75 E - 65 E. The spatial resolution increases from about 22 km at the N/S boundaries to a resolution of about 5.5 km at the equator. In the zonal direction a constant resolution of 11 km is used. In the vertical, 40 generalized terrain-following levels define a mean vertical resolution of 5 m at the surface that gradually decreases to about 300 m at the deeper levels. At the open boundaries, the model is constrained by seasonal cycle of the Global Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM). Near the boundaries the model is gradually nudged to HYCOM seasonal cycle. 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 were obtained from the ERA-interim analysis using the 3-hourly, 1/8 degree resolution dataset.
