ABSTRACT

Several 1/3 degree HYCOM North Atlantic sigma-2* simulations were performed, with the objective of selecting the best cases to be realized at 1/12 degree resolution. Differences among the 1/3 degree cases are in the z-level spacing and stretching factors, in hybgen parameters, and in the advection scheme. The first results of a 1/12 sigma-2* simulation will also be discussed.
