| 64 | === '''INGV.4 — Wave-current interaction''' === |
| 65 | ''' Motivation:''' full coupling of a wave model |
| 66 | with NEMO.In two steps: [[BR]] |
| 67 | a. Step1. By the end of 2012. Linear superposition of the Stokes velocity |
| 68 | field, computed from an offline wave model, with circulation velocity |
| 69 | from OGCM. [[BR]] |
| 70 | b. Step2. By the end of 2013. Implementation of all the wave-ogcm coupling |
| 71 | terms in the model equations. [[BR]] |

| 77 | === '''INGV.5 — Atmospheric forcing interpolation''' === |
| 78 | ''' Motivation:''' An issue that still need |
| 79 | investigation for the NEMO air-sea physics concerns the horizontal interpolation |
| 80 | of the input atmospheric fields. In the current version of the NEMO code, all the |
| 81 | external fields are interpolated into the model T-Grid, then fluxes computed, and |
| 82 | finally momentum fluxes interpolated into the corresponfing U and V-grids. |
| 83 | Another possibility is to interpolate the input atmospheric data into all the |
| 84 | necessary grids (U, V and T) and apply the bulk directly into the correct model |
| 85 | grid. This requires some testing. [[BR]] |

| 91 | === '''INGV.6 — Atmospheric forcing at the land-ocean interface''' === |
| 92 | ''' Motivation:''' Masking of atmospheric fields over land is crucial in coastal |
| 93 | or near-coastal areas, in order to avoid spurious fluxes due to the wrong usage of |
| 94 | “land” values from the coarse atmospheric model when spatial interpolation is |
| 95 | required. [[BR]] |

| 101 | === '''INGV.6 — Rationalization of air-sea bulk formulae''' === |
| 102 | ''' Motivation:''' In the current version |
| 103 | of the NEMO, a user can choose between three different packages of air sea |
| 104 | interaction bulk formulae. The packages differ in term of atmospheric input fields |
| 105 | and bulk parametrizations. In theory the best way would be to let the user decide, |
| 106 | what kind of bulk to be used for each component of the Heat, Salt and Mass |
| 107 | fluxes. This work does not require implementation of the bulk but a quite hard |
| 108 | rearranging of the current version of the code. [[BR]] |
