Ocean modelling

Ocean modelling became its own team in the second year of the project to ensure the large-scale ocean modelling component could be completed and integrated into the rest of the study. Their objectives were to investigate the relative impacts of climate change and regulation on freshwater-marine coupling within the Hudson Bay System from a modelling perspective. Their other goals were to provide an integrated observational-modelling freshwater/marine framework for model-data comparison, to improve the understanding of physical mechanisms responsible for observed phenomena based on observations and historical simulations, and to improve representation in future simulations.
