The Scottish Shelf Model. Part 2: Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters Sub-Domain

Scottish Marine and Freshwater Science Vol 7 No 4

Marine Scotland has led the development of a hydrodynamic model (FVCOM) for the Scottish continental shelf waters called the Scottish Shelf Model (SSM). A series of six reports have been produced documenting the development of the hydrodynamic model. This report is Part 2: Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters Sub-Domain, documenting the development of this sub-domain model. A companion volume contains additional details on the model development and lessons learned.
