Thetis coastal ocean model: discontinuous Galerkin discretization for the three-dimensional hydrostatic equations

<p>Unstructured grid ocean models are advantageous for simulating the coastal ocean and river–estuary–plume systems. However, unstructured grid models tend to be diffusive and/or computationally expensive, which limits their applicability to real-life problems. In this paper, we describe a...
