TLDR
In this article, the authors used the terrain following three-dimensional Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) to simulate the dynamic process such as the changes of water mass in the Balikpapan Bay.Abstract:
Balikpapan Bay is located in the East Borneo Province of Borneo, Indonesia and directly connected to the Makassar Strait and also has very important role in determining the dynamics of ocean current, heat and freshwater content in the Makassar Strait. Numerical model has been used to simulate the dynamic process such as the changes of water mass in the Balikpapan Bay. We have used the terrain following three-dimensional Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS). Tides, river discharges, and atmospheric forcing (surface fields) have been used as generating forces for the model. The model has been simulated for three months from 1 October 2012 to 1 January 2013. The model has been validated by computing the RMSE, MAPE and Willmott's index of agreement (d) using water level observation at the sampling station in Semayang port, Balikpapan. The verification showed a good agreement between model prediction and field observation data with RMSE = 7.8 cm, MAPE = 14.3% and d = 0.995 (with a value of perfect agreement equals to 1.0). The results analysed using vertical profile of salinity and temperature from 22 sampling stations with 11 stations located at the inner part of Balikpapan Bay. While the other stations located outside the Balikpapan Bay were used to analyse watermass. Water circulation is mostly dominated by the forcing from tides. The model results showed that the outer part of Balikpapan Bay is saltier than the inner part of Balikpapan bay. The highest average temperature occurred along coastal areas with value ~31 °C. The distribution of vertical salt transport showed that the water masses tend to be stratified during neap tides and mixed during spring tides condition.read more

The regional oceanic modeling system (ROMS): a split-explicit, free-surface, topography-following-coordinate oceanic model
TL;DR: In this paper, a split-explicit hydrodynamic kernel for a realistic oceanic model is proposed, which addresses multiple numerical issues associated with mode splitting, and is compatible with a variety of centered and upstream-biased high-order advection algorithms, and helps to mitigate computational cost of expensive physical parameterization of mixing processes and submodels.

TL;DR: In this paper, it is suggested that the correlation coefficieness between observed and simulated variates is not as good as observed variates, and that correlation can be improved.
