Numerical Modeling of the Delaware River and Bay during Spring-Fall of 1984 Using the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS)
As part of a model validation exercise, the ROMS numerical ocean model has been employed to simulate the flow in the Delaware River and Bay region during March 21 – September 10 of 1984 and subsequently the numerical predictions have been compared with a comprehensive set of observations. The water level comparisons show good agreement with observations except during wind and river runoff events; however beyond these events, they recover rapidly and effectively. A similar comparison of the currents shows that the phases agree well and the main source of error is in the amplitudes with the ROMS generally under-predicting them. Both the water level and current predictions show the greatest errors in the upper regions of the Delaware River. The temperatures show that ROMS predicts the overall temperature and summer heating trends well. The ROMS salinities show similar trends to observations but they over-predict the salinity consistently. Finally, this paper offers some recommendations to improve the ROMS predictions further.
