Dissemination of a Coupled Hydrodynamical-Ecological model for Regional and Shelf Seas (COHERENS) Summary: COHERENS is a three-dimensional multi-purpose numerical program for coastal and shelf seas with a physical "core" part which is coupled to biological, re-suspension and contaminant models, and resolves mesoscale to seasonal scale processes. The program has been developed over the period 1990-1999 by a multinational European group, as part of the MAST projects PROFILE, NOMADS and COHERENS, funded by the European Union. The COHERENS model is freely available on CD-ROM for the scientific community and management authorities. The CD-ROM contains: -The complete FORTRAN source code. -An extensive documentation and user manual. -A set of more than 50 pre-defined test cases which can be performed by the user without prior knowledge of the program. -A graphical interface converting model output into a portable format supported by several commercial and freeware graphical packages. The main features of COHERENS are: -A physical component with modules for currents, salinity and temperature -A module for simulating biological cycling processes. -A sediment module describing the deposition and re-suspension of organic and inorganic particulate material. -Eulerian and Lagrangian modules to simulate the advective-diffusive transport of contaminants. Its ease of implementation across a range of computing platforms (multiprocessor systems, UNIX workstations, PCs under LINUX/DOS) means that it will be attractive to groups with a sufficient expertise in modelling, who have need of sophisticated model products. Important advantages of the model are its transparency due to its modular structure and its flexibility because of the possibility of selecting different processes, specific schemes or different types of forcing for a particular application. This allows its use for process studies as well for predictive or operational purposes without prior knowledge of its detailed structure. Future developments can be implemented without affecting the core of the program.
