TL;DR: The results reveal the significant accuracy of IBI-WAV forecasts and prove that a combined observational and modeling approach can provide a comprehensive characterization of severe wave conditions in coastal areas and shows the benefits from the complementary nature of both systems.

TL;DR: The MyOcean IBI-MFC (Monitoring & Forecasting Centre) has been providing continuous daily ocean model estimates and forecasts for the Iberia-Biscay-Ireland (IBI) regional seas since 2011 as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the ocean physical daily forecast and 10-year reanalysis products provided by the Iberia-Biscay-Ireland Monitoring and Forecasting Center (IBI-MFC), in the framework of the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS), over an overlapping 9-month period (April-December 2011).

TL;DR: In this paper, an exhaustive validation of two ocean model solutions (derived from the Eulerian ocean forecast systems, such as the regional CMEMS IBI and the high resolution PdE SAMPA) in reproducing the complex surface dynamics in the Gibraltar Strait and the Alboran Sea is evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of riverine discharges on the coastal circulation is investigated by comparing the signal of the Ebro River freshwater outflow in both observed (high-frequency radar (HFR)) and modelled (IBI) current maps.
