SA-West Forecast V1.0

The SA-West Forecast product provides a 5 day forecast of the ocean state along the west coast of South Africa, updated daily. This product represents the operational version of the SA-West Hindcast V1.0 product, and forms part of SOMISANA's South African Coastal Ocean Forecast System West (SACOFS). The model was developed using the Coastal and Regional Ocean COmmunity (CROCO) modelling system. The model curvilinear grid has a variable horizontal grid resolution (1 – 2.5 km) which increases toward the coast. The model has 30 terrain-following (sigma) vertical levels. Model bathymetry is interpolated from digital navigation charts provided by the South African National Hydrographic Office (SANHO). Open boundary conditions for our models are obtained from two ~9 km resolution global ocean analysis and forecast products: Mercator and Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM). Surface forcing for our models is obtained from both the ~25 km resolution Global Forecasting System (GFS) and a...

Processed CTD continuous observations from the Physical Oceanography Gear Trials on the Africana Voyage 091, April 1991

Here we present processed downcast Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) continuous data collected, between 29 April and 30 April 1991, during voyage 091 on the FRS Africana, in the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) region on the west coast of Southern Africa. Neil Brown MK3 and MK4 CTD instruments were used to measure pressure, temperature and conductivity through the water column during research and monitoring cruises between 1983 and 2000.

Processed CTD discrete observations from the Pelagic Biomass Survey on the Africana Voyage 087, November 1990

Here we present processed Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) discrete data from the upcast collected, between 06 November and 30 November 1990, during voyage 087 on the FRS Africana, in the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) region on the west coast of Southern Africa and the Agulhas Current Large Marine Ecosystem (ACLME) region on the south coast of Southern Africa. Neil Brown MK3 and MK4 CTD instruments were used to measure pressure, temperature and conductivity through the water column during research and monitoring cruises between 1983 and 2000.
