Mediterranean Sea Physics Analysis and Forecast

'''Short Description'''

The physical component of the Mediterranean Forecasting System (Med-Physics) is a coupled hydrodynamic-wave model implemented over the whole Mediterranean Basin including tides. The model horizontal grid resolution is 1/24˚ (ca. 4 km) and has 141 unevenly spaced vertical levels. The hydrodynamics are supplied by the Nucleous for European Modelling of the Ocean NEMO (v4.2) and include the representation of tides, while the wave component is provided by Wave Watch-III (v6.07) coupled through OASIS; the model solutions are corrected by a 3DVAR assimilation scheme (OceanVar2.0) for temperature and salinity vertical profiles and along track satellite Sea Level Anomaly observations.
