Last year’s project • Compare the CORIE Development model with the Phoebe glider data • Find what might be causing the model to predict wrong http://dalnews.dal.ca/2008/05/07/slocum-glider-2-300.jpg
Phoebe the Glider http://www.stccmop.org/corie/observation_network/auv
Phoebe Data Model Observation May 17 2009 –June 27 2009
CMOP’s Model May 24 all day Surface Salinity Wind at 10 m/s
Modeled winds & measured winds May 24, 2009 Noon Tongue point
Salinity layer 15 Observations Model
Conclusion • The CORIE Dev model was more accurate past 15 meters • Models are very helpful but only if they are accurate
Project • Translate activities into Spanish • Activities that can be used in the classroom
