Model overview

A Working Environment for Simulating Ocean Movement and Elemental cycling with an Ocean Circulation Inverse Model (AWESOME OCIM) is a tool for simulating ocean movement and tracer biogeochemical properties within a transport matrix model (TMM) framework.[1] The circulation of the ocean is described in the form of a matrix where the ocean is discretized into a 3D shoebox by latitude, longitude, and depth. The circulation matrix is based off of
