The regional MOM5 will have a fully eddy-resolving horizontal resolution of 0.1° in the GOM region from 10°N to 30°N and from 100°W to 70°W, decreasing linearly to 0.25° in the rest of the model domain. The regional MOM5 has 25 vertical z-coordinates, and is driven by the surface forcing fields obtained from CMIP5 dataset under the historical, RCP4.5, and RCP8.5 scenarios. The initial and boundary conditions are obtained from CMIP5. The ocean boundaries at 65°N and 20°S will be treated as closed, but are outfitted with about 5° of buffer zones in which the temperature and salinity will be linearly relaxed toward the corresponding fields obtained CMIP5 dataset. The sea surface salinity (SSS) of the model are also relaxed toward CMIP5 dataset. Two additional buffer zones will be located in the northwestern corner over the Labrador Sea, and in the Gulf of Cadiz (representing the Mediterranean Sea). The restoring time scale for the northern and southern boundaries will vary linearly from 25 days at the inner edge to 5 days at the walls. The timescale for the Labrador Sea region will be 25 days and, for the Mediterranean Sea, 365 days. The MOM4 model simulations are initialized from CMIP5 model simulations and are continuously run from 1900 to 2100. The available variables include temperature, salinity, sea surface height, current vectors, etc. To create high resolution predictions of the oceanographic environment under climate change conditions, through to 2100 Fisheries and the Environment (NOAA), Coral Reef Conservation Program (NOAA) completed irregular CoRIS_Metadata theme NCEI Geoportal Filter Geographic Information > Climate theme CoRIS Discovery Thesaurus EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Ocean Temperature > Water Temperature EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Salinity/Density > Salinity EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Ocean Circulation > Ocean Currents theme CoRIS Theme Thesaurus downscaled climate model theme None Developing downscaled climate models for coral reef management into the 21st Century 175 project CRCP Project Atlantic Ocean place None OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean place CoRIS Place Thesaurus none otherRestrictions Use Constraints: None otherRestrictions Access Constraints: None vector eng; USA climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere -100 20 20 65 1900-01-01 2100-12-31 Entity and Attribute Overview: Temperature (degC), salinity and current velocities (m/s) are available at varying horizontal and vertical spatial resolutions for the model domain Entity and Attribute Detail Citation: N/A Barbara Muhling 3053614289 75 Virginia Beach Drive Miami USA Florida 33149 Barbara.Muhling@noaa.gov distributor dataset Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report No formal positional accuracy tests were conducted Data set is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract.Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for addtional details. not applicable Please contact NOAA's Southeast Fisheries Science Center for additional information. 2013-09-30T00:00:00 annually This metadata was automatically generated from the FDGC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata and Biological Data Profile standard (version FDGC-STD-001-1998) using the 2016-01-11 version of the FGDC RSE to ISO 19115-2 transform.
