An oceanic general circulation model framed in hybrid isopycnic-Cartesian coordinates

TL;DR: The intent of this approach, some of whose features are reminiscent of the Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) technique, is to combine the best features of isopycnic-coordinate and fixed-grid circulation models within a single framework.
Journal ArticleDOI

The HYCOM (HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model) data assimilative system

TL;DR: An overview of the effort centered on the HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) to develop an eddy-resolving, real-time global and basin-scale ocean hindcast, nowcast, and prediction system in the context of the Global Ocean Data Assimilation Experiment (GODAE) is provided in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Salinity-driven Thermocline Transients in a Wind- and Thermohaline-forced Isopycnic Coordinate Model of the North Atlantic

TL;DR: An isopycnic-coordinate oceanic circulation model formulated with the aim of simulating thermodynamically and mechanically driven flow in realistic basins is presented in this article, where special emphasis is placed on the handling of diabatic surface processes and on thermocline ventilation.
Journal ArticleDOI

US GODAE: Global Ocean Prediction with the Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM)

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid coordinate ocean model (HYCOM) with data assimilation in an eddy-resolving, fully global ocean prediction system with transition to the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO) at.08 deg equatorial (~7 km mid-latitude) resolution in 2007 and.04 deg resolution by 2011.
