GIS Layer: Bottom Stress from the Northern Region Circulation Model

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

The Northern Region Circulation Model was developed as part of the FRDC Surrogates 1 project. It covers the region from Joseph Bonaparte Gulf to Torres Strait with a fixed horizontal resolution of 0.05 degrees. Outputs included sea level, currents, bottom stress, and other physical parameters. For this dataset the maximum current velocity (max u & V) were used to create GIS map layers
