Abstract

The abstract describes the main reasons for numerical modelling of sea in the Adriatic Sea and briefly explains the models currently used for this purpose. It also depicts the POM circulation model for the area of the north Adriatic Sea, the SWAN wave model and the NAFTA3d model of hydrocarbon spills in marine environment. Moreover, some results of these models as well as current plans for their implementation are presented.
