Ocean Modelling in Support of Operational Ocean and Coastal Services

Subject

Black Sea; operational oceanography; numerical modelling; data assimilation; forecasting; validation

Description

: This work describes the design, implementation and validation of the Black Sea physics
analysis and forecasting system, developed by the Black Sea Physics production unit within the
Black Sea Monitoring and Forecasting Center as part of the Copernicus Marine Environment and
Monitoring Service. The system provides analyses and forecasts of the temperature, salinity, sea
surface height, mixed layer depth and currents for the whole Black Sea basin, excluding the Azov
Sea, and has been operational since 2016. The system is composed of the NEMO (v 3.4) numerical
model and an OceanVar scheme, which brings together real time observations (in-situ temperature
and salinity profiles, sea level anomaly and sea surface temperature satellite data). An operational
quality assessment framework is used to evaluate the accuracy of the products which set the basic
standards for the future upgrades, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of the model and the
observing system in the Black Sea
