Building a Portuguese Coastal Operational Modelling System
Henrique Coelho and Paulo Leitão - Hidromod
Guillaume Riflet, Angela Cânas, Rodrigo Fernandes and Ramiro Neves - Maretec
Goal – Downscale from coastal to local
Operational Products
• Support water quality monitorization (ex: waste water, eutrophication analysis, HAB’s);
• Oil Spills (Emergence Response Systems);
• Seal level (floods, coastal erosion);
Helping Monitorization
MERIS
Upwelling Index versus Nitrate in the discharge area of the Guia Outfall
Methodology
• Atmospheric fluxes (MM5);
• Large scale circulation (Mercator or HYCOM);
• Rivers run off (INAG – Real Time River Flow Data);
• Tides (Fes2004);
• Hydrodynamic and Biogeochemical processes (MOHID);
Downscalling results• Estremadura Promontory (Downscalling Mercator)• Algarve Coast (Downscalling HYCOM)
Cadiz Golf
Validation – Satelite versus MOHID
• Sea Surface Temperature;
• Chlorophyll;• Altimetry;

Future Development
• Data assimilation : Optimal Interpolation and Kalman Filter;
• Interpolation and Extrapolation : Convolution methods (Higdon, 1998) ;
• Paralelization : Linux cluster;
Institutional Interaction
• MeteoGalicia (Atmospheric fluxes, Oil Spills);
• IntecMar (HAB’s, Oil spills);
• IPIMAR (HAB’s);
• ESEOO (Iberian strategy);
• Mercator (Large scale circulation);
• IBRIOOS (Task team of EUROGOOS for the Arc Atlantic);
Projects
• EROCIPS – Oil spills (underway);
• INSEA – Eutrophycation indexes (to during 2005);
• ECOOP – Sea level and HAB’s (to start in 2007);
• DYNCOSTAL – HAB’s
