Western Indian Ocean Energy Sinks (WOES) 0.25: a CROCO numerical ocean model hindcast at 1/12 degree daily for the south western Indian Ocean from 1993-2014 nested in a 1/4 degree WOES run.
This realistic ocean simulation was run using the Coastal and Regional Ocean COmmunity model (CROCO), based on the Regional Ocean Modelling System (ROMS), which has 60 terrain-following vertical levels. This output (WOES 0.25) is the largest grid of a triply nested configuration: WOES I, WOES II and WOES III, with horizontal resolutions of ~22.5, 7.5 and 2.5 km respectively. Monthly ouputs of the 0.25 degree GLORYS ocean reanalysis is used to force the boundaries of WOES I. The surface forcing for this model is provided by a bulk formulation using daily ERA-Interim atmospheric reanalysis (with a resolution of ~80 km) and using a relative wind approach. The output is saved as daily averages, in monthly netcdf files spanning January 1993 - December 2014. WOES 0.25 spans 55.7degS to 3.18388 degS and 10degW to 102.25degE and covers most of the Southern Subtropical Indian Ocean and a part of the Southern Atlantic Ocean. Model output includes: averaged free-surface (zeta), averaged vertically integrated u-momentum component (ubar), averaged vertically integrated v-momentum component (vbar), averaged u-momentum component (u), averaged v-momentum component (v), averaged potential temperature (temp), averaged salinity (salt), averaged vertical momentum component (w). Numerical computations were performed on the IDRIS (Institut du Developpement et des Ressources en Informatique Scientifique) IBM "ADA" computer facility (under grant A0020107630)
