Weather forecasting digital model
Weather forecasting models are used to show atmospheric conditions by computing changes in meteorological parameters on a 3D atmospheric grid model. Physical laws are used to... -
Numerical sea state representation model (France)
Wave forecasting models allow the representation of offshore sea states, at the global or ocean basin scale, based on spectral resolution. This code calculates the evolution of... -
2D hydrodynamic model of water levels and surges (France)
To model water levels (including astronomical tides and meteorological surges), the Shom uses a barotropic (2D) version of the HYCOM code (https://hycom.org/) configured on 2... -
3D hydrodynamic model of evolution of ocean (France)
Shom uses HYCOM 3D (Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model) digital models to model changes to the ocean environment (currents, temperature, salinity, water depth). These HYCOM 3D models...
