Modeling

CALYPSO is an ONR Departmental Research Initiative that addresses the challenge of observing, understanding and predicting the three-dimensional pathways by which water from the surface ocean makes its way into the deeper ocean. Here, we describe the CALYPSO research projects that have a dominant modeling research component.
