MEDSEA_REANALYSIS_PHYS_006_004

Short Description

The Mediterranean Forecasting System, physical reanalysis component, is a hydrodynamic model, supplied by the Nucleous for European Modelling of the Ocean (NEMO), with a variational data assimilation scheme (OceanVAR) for temperature and salinity vertical profiles and satellite Sea Level Anomaly along track data. The model horizontal grid resolution is 1/16˚ (ca. 6-7 km) and the unevenly spaced vertical levels are 72.
