Ocean Modeling Discussion

Field experiments indicate that horizontal diffusivities decrease with length-scale (Okubo, 1971, Deep-Sea Research, 18:789-802). So the horizontal diffusivity you should use depends on your horizontal grid resolution. Ledwell et al. (1998, Journal of Geophysical Research 103(C10):21499-21529 ...

Hi Shou, I am not very familiar with ROMS, but I have tried this sort of thing in other models, so hopefully I can help. 1. What are the depths or thicknesses of your 10 vertical levels? If they are e.g. 1 meter each, then even your deepest level will have too much sunlight for net nitrification to ...
