This November, some of the world’s leading ocean scientists convened in Paris for OceanPredict ’24, a conference dedicated to advancing ocean prediction science. Aligned with the UN Ocean Decade goals, the symposium showcases groundbreaking research, fosters collaboration, and explores the future of operational oceanography. Among the attendees were several members of the Nansen-Tutu Centre, including […]
Dr. Issufo Halo received the Bjerknes Visiting Fellowship, giving him support to travel to visit the Bjerknes Centre in Bergen, Norway for two weeks. The Bjerknes Centre consists of four partners, of which three are also partners in the Nansen Tutu Centre. The visit was hosted by Annette Samuelsen from NERSC and Anne Britt Sandø […]
CROCO is a modeling platform to study the regional, coastal and nearshore ocean (ocean dynamics, sedimentary dynamics, biogeochemistry) on time scales ranging from event to multi-decadal, and spatial scales ranging from kilometric to metric resolutions. CROCO’s flexible equation system, including non-hydrostatic capabilities, and its computational efficiency enable it to simulate very fine scales (especially in […]
The HYCOM model (Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model) is a highly sophisticated, global ocean circulation model designed to simulate ocean currents, temperature, salinity, and other oceanic processes. It combines different types of coordinate systems to capture various features of the ocean more accurately, especially in complex regions like the coastal zones, deep oceans, and regions with […]
