Vertical mixing scheme for stratified coastal ocean

#1 Unread post by m.hadfield »

So what's the current state of the art in ROMS for a coastal simulation with the following characteristics?

* Mid-latitude

* Depth 10-100 m

* Reasonably strong stratification due to river outflow and summer heating

* Strong tidal flows

* Grid spacing 1000 m, to be reduced to ~ 200 m later

LMD? GLS?
