Ezer, T., G. L. Mellor, S. Häkkinen, and C. Mauritzen, 1994: Simulations of the Arctic and North Atlantic Oceans. In The Atlantic Climate Change Program, Proceedings from the principal investigators meeting, NOAA; University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, 115-119.

Abstract: Numerical simulations of the North Atlantic and the Arctic Oceans were and are being carried out using the Princeton Ocean Model (POM; Blumberg and Mellor, 1987). POM uses a bottom-following sigma-coordinate system and a coastal-following curvilinear orthogonal grid; it has been developed primarily to study estuaries and coastal regions, but is increasingly being applied to basin-scale problems and climate studies.

To assist this brief discussion we refer to model grids illustrated in Figures 1a,b,c,d. Grid (a) refers mainly to accomplished work as described in the "Background" section. Grids (b), (c) and (d) represent "Current Progress"; one or more of these grids will factor into future "Plans."
