The Regional Ocean Modeling System is implemented to model the west Iberian coast with a spatial resolution of 3km using the boundary, climatological and initial conditions from the Atlantic-Iberian Biscay Irish-Ocean Physics Reanalysis product from the EU Copernicus Marine Service at 1/12º resolution. The atmospheric forcing is from the Climate Forecast System Reanalysis at 1/3.2º resolution. The ocean model results are first validated using satellite sea surface temperature and afterwards in situ currents, temperature and salinity data from moorings available at the Copernicus Service.
