| description | A high resolution nested
flow model for the coastal, shelf and open sea areas of the Cyprus Basin, NE
Levantine, eastern Mediterranean Sea is implemented to fulfil the objectives of
the Mediterranean Forecasting System Pilot Project, funded by the EU. The
Cyprus coastal ocean model is nested entirely within a coarse regional grid
model of the eastern Mediterranean Sea, using the MODB climatology for
initialisation and the ECMWF perpetual year surface forcing. The nested
simulations of the Cyprus model were able to reproduce, with greater detail,
flow features similar to those of the coarse grid regional model. The project
results show the feasibility of the approach for the development of an
operational forecasting system in the Mediterranean Sea, particularly in the
Cyprus coastal/shelf sea area.<br><br> <b>Key words. </b>Oceanography: general
