The presentation is divided in two parts. The first part evaluates the performance of radiation condition, characteristic methods, and relaxation schemes applied to the barotropic mode. According to these experiments the open boundary conditions with the best overall performance are the relaxation schemes proposed by Martinsen and Engedahl (1987), and the radiation condition suggested by Flather (1976), supplemented with a local solution suggested by Roed and Smedstad (1984) for wind-drivenn problems. The second part of this study evaluates the performance of a selected set of open boundary conditions for the fully 3-D model. The particular problem to be discussed is the wind driven upwelling of a coastal region. The first set of experiments are conducted in an idealized domain to allow comparions of the numerical results with theory. Following the idealized experiments the model is used to investigate tha coastal upwelling of the Chilean coast.
