Short summary
In order to provide an aid for the interpretation of observations of the formation, structure, and dynamics of submesoscale patterns, a numerical model is applied in a double-offline-nested setup to a sub-area of the Baltic Sea. A model with 500 m horizontal resolution is nested into an existing operational model in order to create a realistic mesoscale environment. Turbulent patterns with horizontal scales < 1 km are resolved by a second nest with 100 m resolution.
