Mediterranean Sea Biogeochemistry Analysis and Forecast
'''Short Description'''
The biogeochemical analysis and forecasts for the Mediterranean Sea at 1/24° of horizontal resolution (ca. 4 km) are produced by means of the MedBFM4 model system. MedBFM4, which is run by OGS (IT), consists of the coupling of the multi-stream atmosphere radiative model OASIM, the multi-stream in-water radiative and tracer transport model OGSTM_BIOPTIMOD v4.3, and the biogeochemical flux model BFM v5. Additionally, MedBFM4 features the 3D variational data assimilation scheme 3DVAR-BIO v3.3 with the assimilation of surface chlorophyll (CMEMS-OCTAC NRT product) and of vertical profiles of chlorophyll, nitrate and oxygen (BGC-Argo floats provided by CORIOLIS DAC).
The biogeochemical MedBFM system, which is forced by the NEMO-OceanVar model (MEDSEA_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_PHY_006_013 product run by CMCC), produces one day of hindcast and ten days of forecast (every day) and seven days of analysis (weekly on Tuesday).
