Description :
Two mathematical models for the study of mesoscale (tides, storm, surges, ...) and macroscale (general circulation...) motions are described. The mesoscale model is applied to the simulation of the M2 tide on the North-Western European Continental Shelf not only without wind but also in typical summer and winter conditions. Recent results are presented. The general circulation model is based on time averaged equations which explicately include mesoscale Reynolds stesses that are computed by the mesoscale model. Recent results of the application of this model in typical summer conditions are presented.
