ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System)

The Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) is a computer program used by scientists to simulate ocean conditions in specific areas. It helps researchers study ocean currents, temperature, salinity, and other factors that affect marine life and climate. By creating detailed models, ROMS allows for better predictions of how oceans will react to changes, such as climate change or human activities. This tool is essential for understanding and managing coastal environments, improving weather forecasts, and addressing issues like pollution and fisheries management.
