Validating tidal current models for ODYSEA satellite ocean insights

Validating tidal current models for the ODYSEA satellite mission demands precision, and this study delivers it. MITgcm outputs were rigorously tested against 106 in-situ records from eight coastal regions, revealing mean RMSEs of 8.85 and 9.55 cm s⁻¹ for the dominant M2 and S2 constituents. While FES2022 shows smaller errors, MITgcm remains within the correct order of magnitude, proving its value for mission preparation.
