Description
Example of the Black Sea velocity fields to be used by the Lagrangian model LTRANS-Zlev (https://github.com/inogs/LTRANS_Zlev). The dataset consists of 4 zip-fies, each containing daily NETCDF files with 4-hour mean velocity records. Velocity are calculated by using the GETM (http://www.getm.eu/) and General Ocean Turbulence Model (GOTM) (Miladinova, S., Stips, A., Garcia-Gorriz, E., Macias Moy, D., 2017. Black Sea thermohaline properties: Long-term trends and variations. J. Geophys. Res. Oceans 122,
5624–5644. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016JC012644). The Stokes drift is added to the horizontal velocities at the surface (BLKSEA_MULTIYEAR _WAV_007_006, https://marine.copernicus.eu).
