Marine Systems Modelling

The National Oceanography Centre is a world-leader in numerical modelling of the global oceans, shelf seas and ocean biogeochemistry.  The Marine Systems Modelling group aims to both develop innovative, state-of-the-art models  and to use these tools to better understand and predict how oceans work, and so address fundamental societal challenges.

Research taking place at NOC is fundamental in developing an integrated understanding of the marine system, and its relation to all components of the wider Earth System and to society.

This integrated approach to marine systems understanding requires working closely with observational oceanographers and across traditional disciplinary boundaries. To achieve this we build strong scientific partnerships across the UK and internationally.
