Summary
Simulation with a global high resolution ocean tide and circulation model (MPI-OM with tides), and an embedded
thermodynamic sea-ice model, which is explicitly forced by the full lunisolar tidal forcing of second degree as
described by ephemerides. Further, the model is forced by daily climatological wind stress, heat, and fresh water
fluxes. The horizontal resolution is about 0.1° and thus, the model implicitly resolves meso-scale eddies and internal
waves.
!--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------!
A simulation of ten years has been performed and the following data is stored:
- 2D tidal patterns of sea level
- 3D horizontal and vertical velocity fields
- barotropic-to-baroclinic tidal energy conversion rates
- 3D tidal density perturbations
- seasonal sub-sampling of M2 tidal sea level and velocities
- daily values of the last year of (u,v,w, T, S) in 100 and 2000 meter depth
- monthly mean values of eight years of several ocean variables
