The Model for Prediction Across Scales-Ocean (MPAS-Ocean) is an unstructured-mesh ocean model capable of using enhanced horizontal resolution in selected regions of the ocean domain. Model domains may be spherical with bottom topography to simulate the earth’s oceans, or on Cartesian domains for idealized experiments.
