Abstract

UBEST aims at improving the global understanding of present and future biogeochemical buffering capacity of estuaries through the development of Observatories, computational web-portals that integrate field observation and real-time MPI (Message Passing Interface) numerical simulations. HPC (High-Performance Computing) is applied in Observatories to serve both on-the-fly frontend user requests for multiple spatial analyses and to speed up backend’s forecast hydrodynamic and ecological simulations based on unstructured grids. Backend simulations are performed using the open-source SCHISM (Semi-implicit Cross-scale Hydroscience Integrated System Model). Python programming language will be used in this project to automate the MPI simulations and the web-portal in Django.
