The Rutgers IMCS Ocean Modeling Group Established in 1990, the Ocean Modeling Group at Rutgers has as one of it foremost goals the development and interdisciplinary application of new regional and basin-scale ocean modeling systems, including coupled models for atmosphere/ocean, biogeochemical and ecosystem response. Modeling software developed by the Ocean Modeling Group and its colleagues has been distributed worldwide to approximately 300 scientists.
The Rutgers IMCS Ocean Modeling Group conducts innovative research and development in: • Ocean observing systems and data assimilation • Advanced algorithms for geophysical modeling • Implementation and distribution of ocean models • Quantitative metrics for ocean model performance • Numerical and laboratory studies of fundamental processes • Coupled modeling of regional climate impacts
The Rutgers IMCS Ocean Modeling Group is engaged in interdisciplinary studies worldwide: • New York / New Jersey continental shelves and estuaries • The California Current System • Australia example (John add) • The Coastal Gulf of Alaska • The Sea of Japan • The Adriatic Sea • Crater Lake
Research conducted by the Rutgers IMCS Ocean Modeling Group is funded by: • The National Science Foundation (NSF) • The Office of Naval Research (ONR) • The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) • The National Ocean Partnership Program (NOPP) • The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) • The US Geological Survey (USGS)
