IMMERSE

  • Run physical model and ocean biogeochemistry concurrently at different resolutions
  • The idea was suggested by Tim Graham when he was part of ocean group
    • According to Tim, the idea was very unpopular when he suggested it.
  • Two strategies
    1. AGRIF approach to coarsening by Rachid
    2. OASIS approach to coarsening by Eric Maisonnave (Cerfacs, OASIS3-MCT expert)
      • Eric will be working with Olivier Aumont to produce this in November
        • He plans to start from scratch
          • Couple the stand alone PISCES to NEMO
        • He'll be talking to people who use DEGRAD, Sarah and Roland, so maybe some of this work will be used.
