THE COPERNICUS MARINE SERVICE OCEAN FORECASTING SYSTEM FOR THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA
LE SYSTEME DE PREVISION OCEANIQUE DU SERVICE COPERNICUS MARINE POUR LA MER MEDITERRANEE
Résumé
The Mediterranean Monitoring and Forecasting Center (Med-MFC) is part of the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) and operationally produces analysis, forecast and reanalysis products for the Mediterranean Sea hydrodynamics, waves and biogeochemistry. The modelling systems are based on state-of-the-art community models, assimilate observational in situ and satellite observations and are forced by high resolution atmospheric fields. Improvements and functioning of the Med-MFC systems are based on the full consistency among the three components which are jointly upgraded and include a continuous amelioration of the accuracy of the products. The focus of this work is to present the Med-MFC modelling systems and the available products, their skill assessment, main recent achievements and future upgrades.
