These numerical models simulate the movement of water masses, heat transport, biogeochemical cycles, and sea-level dynamics across scales from coastal estuaries to global ocean basins. While traditionally run on institutional supercomputers, the maturation of open-source ocean models and the availability of powerful HPC hardware now make self-hosted ocean simulation a reality for research labs, consultancies, and citizen science organizations.</p>
