=== Vertical grid ===

The vertical grid is a hybrid stretched grid. It is hybrid in that its stretching intervals fall somewhere between the two extremes of 1) the evenly-spaced sigma grid used by the [[Princeton Ocean Model]] and 2) a true z-grid with a static depth interval . The vertical grid can be squeezed or stretched to increase or decrease the resolution for an area of interest, such as a [[thermocline]] or bottom boundary layer. Grid stretching in the vertical direction follows bottom topography, allowing for the idealized flow of water over features such as seamounts. <ref>{{Cite journal|date=1994-11-01|title=A Semi-implicit Ocean Circulation Model Using a Generalized Topography-Following Coordinate System|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0021999184711892|journal=Journal of Computational Physics|language=en|volume=115|issue=1|pages=228–244|doi=10.1006/jcph.1994.1189|issn=0021-9991|last1=Song|first1=Yuhe|last2=Haidvogel|first2=Dale}}</ref>

There is an ever-growing number of applications of ROMS to particular regions of the world's oceans. These integrated ocean modeling systems use ROMS for the circulation component, and add other variables and processes of interest. A few examples are:
