Development of a three-dimensional hydrodynamic circulation model for Lake Huron and Georgian Bay / Jinyu Sheng and Yerubandi R. Rao.: En13-5/04-176E-PDF

"A primitive equation z-level ocean circulation model known as CANDIE (Canadian Version of Diecast, Sheng et al., 1998) is used in the development of a three-dimensional circulation model for Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. The lake circulation model domain covers the region between 275.3°E (84.7°E) and 280.6°E (79.4°W) and between 43°N and 46.3°N, with a horizontal resolution of roughly 2.5 km and 30 z-levels in the vertical. The model is used to simulate the large-scale circulation, temperature distribution and their seasonal variability in 1974-75, during which a field program was conducted in Lake Huron"--Abstract.
