The Bergen Ocean Model (BOM)About BOMThe Bergen Ocean Model is a numerical simulation tool developed by the Institute of Marine Research , Norway and the Hydrodynamics group at Dept. of Mathematics , University of Bergen, with contributions from Dept. of Informatics and Parallab also at the University of Bergen. The code development was initiated in 1995, with the main motivation to incorporate modern numerical techniques into ocean modeling, and this process is continuously ongoing. The model is implemented in Fortran 90 with source code freely available. The mathematical basis for the model is the velocity field, pressure, density, salinity and temperature governed by momentum, continuity and conservation equations. The discretization applies finite differences on a staggered grid with a vertical sigma-coordinate representation. Further details can be found in the documentation. |
