Ocean Model Output Animations

  • Three Ocean Model Animation   Low Res(73MB)  |  High Res(250MB)
     
    Ocean Model Animations This is an animation featuring three Ocean Models at increasingly finer spatial resolutions. The first one is a global model at 20-km with fully coupled ocean and ice processes generated by Dimitris. The second one is a Pacific model at 12-km using the Regional Ocean Modeling SYstem (ROMS) generated by Yi Chao and the third one is a Southern California coastal ocean ROMS at 2.2-km resolutions. The color represents the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) that is shaded reliefed using the Sea Surface Height (SSH). The thickness of the ice is represented by the brightness of the white color. The thicker the ice is, the brighter the color is. The animation shows the 11 year's simulation output from 1993 to 2003.
