COAPS Short Seminar Series
11:00 AM  March 2nd
Attend F2F (in 255 Research A) or Virtually (via Zoom)

Meeting ID: 922 6826 2553
Talks are typically 12 minutes long with an additional 8 minutes for questions. This month our first talk will have the time for two typical talks.

Residence Times and Characteristic Pathways in the Gulf of Mexico
By Nektaria Ntaganou
Description: I am investigating water residence times and characteristic pathways in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) using Lagrangian particle trajectories with advection velocities obtained from a 54-year, free-running HYCOM simulation. This presentation details the methods used and their associated challenges. Results identify the highest-probability pathways across various depths and their corresponding residence times.

Bottom Topography Representation Using Shaved Cells in HYCOM
By Yao Gahounzo
Description: HYCOM currently represents bottom topography using a staircase approximation composed of discontinuous partial cells fitted to the model grid. Although this method is robust, it imposes geometric and dynamical constraints when representing irregular topography. In this talk, I will present an alternative shaved-cell approach for a more accurate representation of bottom topography, along with comparative results with the MOM6 model to evaluate its effects on numerical accuracy.

Celebrating 20 Years of SAMOS!
By Shawn Smith
Description: Presentation will revisit the history of the SAMOS initiative, how the project came to be, where SAMOS is today, and the vision for the future. Several unique events from the past 20 years will be highlighted.

NOTE: Please feel free to forward/share this invitation with other groups/disciplines that might be interested in this talk/topic. All are welcome to attend.
