ROMS surface temperature and velocity for 2001-Jul-23 (day 20 of 60-day simulation).

Model grid resolution is 1 km. Velocity vectors are plotted for every 4 th grid point. The full domain is shown

Initial conditions are from climatology.Configuration details: Fairall et al. bulk formulae with model SST and observed Tair, qair, Qsw, Qlw (met mooring obs assumed uniform throughout model domain).

Open boundaries are climatology plus tides (7 major harmonics from ADCIRC model)
