Kiritimati 10-years model hindcast at 1km resolution

Ocean circulation model hindcast of Kiritimati (Republic of Kiribati) at 1 km resolution developed by the SIROCCO team for SPC.

Simulations performed using SYMPHONIE for the period 2010-2019 with an horizontal resolution of 1 km.

The model is forced at the boundaries by the Mercator global ocean analysis (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00016). Wind forcing is provided by the ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis (https://doi.org/10.24381/cds.adbb2d47). No tidal forcing is considered.
