Physical oceanography - Developing end-to-end models of the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem

Metadata Updated: May 24, 2025

The purpose of this project is to develop spatially discrete end-to-end models of the California Current LME, linking oceanography, biogeochemistry, food web interactions, habitat, fisheries, economics, monitoring, and management into a common model framework. This framework allows for thought experiments, including evaluation of alternate management strategies, identifying robust indicators, and assessing relative importance of different ecosystem drivers in regulating important processes. NMFS personnel are conducting this work in broad collaboration with other NOAA scientists, academics, and NGOs. The specific work entails model development, scoping issues with stakeholders and policy makers, running scenarios, and analyzing and writing up the results. Products will include peer-reviewed papers, presentations, and workshops with modelers and/or stakeholders. Management audiences include NMFS west coast regions and the PFMC. The project is an on-going, stand-alone project with no firm deadline for completion. Outputs of the ROMS model. Metadata and .nc datafile at https://www.nodc.noaa.gov/oceanacidification/data/0131198.xml Generated from Atlantis ecosystem model, version AtlantisTrunk5425. Model code from CSIRO Australia, available via SVN after contacting CSIRO staff at http://atlantis.cmar.csiro.au/.
