Continuation of ADRICOSM forecasting activities Paolo Oddo (INGV) National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia
OUTLINE • The ADRICOSM operational system • Recent improvements • New results and validation • Conclusion
ADRICOSM operational system • POM Based Code • 5km horiz. Resolution • 21 vertical sigma layers • Smol. Advection scheme
New Results and Validation Summer Winter Climatological (from new sys.) seasonal surface circulation fields.
New Results and Validation Mean and Instantaneous circulation patterns
New Results and Validation T/S diagrams from Obs(dark) and Model (Red). Divided by Year :(2001-2002-2003) and sub-regions: Northern, Middle and Southern Adriatic
New Results and Validation Comparison between surface CHL (Satellite) and model predicted salinity patterns CHL SALT
Conclusions • The ADRICOSM Regional model is operational in both configurations (5km and 2km NO WEB). • Recent model changes have improved numerical results • Comparison with available observation has shown that some old model deficiencies has been fixed.
