This project aims to develop a high-resolution three-dimensional model for oceanic flows in the Dease Strait /Cambridge Bay region. The ultimate goal is to have a high-resolution oceanic flow model that can predict the movement of materials (e.g. nutrients) that could affect biological productivity and to formulate more effective response strategies (e.g. search and rescue) to a shipping accident.
