Solomon Islands ocean circulation forecast at 1/100°

Ocean circulation model forecast of the Solomon Islands developed by PCCOS.

Simulations performed using CROCO with an horizontal resolution of 1/100°.

The model is forced at the boundaries by the larger scale Solomon Sea ocean circulation forecast model at 1/36°. Atmospheric forcing (wind, heat fluxes, etc.) is provided by the GFS forecast system.  Tides are forced at the boundaries using FES 2014.

This product has not been validated against in situ data. PCCOS/SPC does not warrant or suggest that this data is fit for any particular purpose.
