Princeton Ocean Model Simulations II Researchers Christopher N.K. Mooers, cmooers@smas.miami.edu OPEL/AMP/RSMAS University of Miami 4600 Rickenbacker Causeway Miami, FL 33149 Heesook Kang, hkang@rsmas.miami.edu RSMAS-MPO University of Miami 4600 Rickenbacker Causeway Miami, FL 33149 Award Number N00014-01-1-0261 Overview This data set is an archive of model simulations produced by Drs. HeeSook Kang and Chris Mooers, RSMAS, University of Miami, using Princeton Ocean Model (POM). It was one of three cases used in Kang and Mooers (2005). This dataset was produced by the 5-year simulations from 1993 to 1997 with ECMWF 6-hourly fluxes, which were re-calculated with MCSST. Details of forcing and model configuration can be found in Kang and Mooers (2005). More about model setting and preparation of forcing appears in Kang (2001). Model parameters and configuration were chosen based on a series of sensitive studies (Kang, 1997). For an explanation of variables used in a reading program, please refer to: Mellor, G.L. (revised 2004). User's guide for a three-dimensional, primitive equation, numerical ocean model, Princeton, NJ. Archive was done twice a day (00 and 12). Simulation dates are recognized in filenames with seven digits; year(1),month(2),day(2),time(2), for example, ec_3012012_1 means data archive on noon, January 20, 1993.
