Last Friday, Dr Germana Peggion of Marine Science Institute of USM gave us a very nice seminar on the ocean nested grid models in a moderately parallel environment.

At first, Dr Peggion showed a lot of pictures describing outlines of the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) which affect the environment of southern US very much.

The study of ocean model will help to predict the climate variation which will be useful information to ecosystem, transportation, military, agriculture, etc.

Then Dr Peggion introduced the Princeton ocean model (POM), which have been one of the most important methods to study ocean system.

Then Dr Peggion presented the ocean modeling numerical issues, the updating variables, open boundary condition, etc.

Then Dr Peggion showed many pictures which is the data simulation of POM.

Then Dr Peggion presented the model initiation for Mississippi Bight (MB), nesting algorithm which is studied from coarse to fine grid and then from fine to coarse.

Then Dr Peggion introduced the parallel code, the picture of simulation.

At last Dr Peggion gave some conclusions with the simulation of MB, GOM and a feed back procedure was introduced.
