In principle the coupling is rather simple and the hydrodynamic model takes care of the most difficult parts. The wiki has quite extensive documentation on the steps to couple to 1D and 3D models. One issue with the ROMS coupling is that ROMS requires the number of bio-geochemical state variables to be known at compile time - which is against the philosophy of FABM where everything is configurable at run time. To overcome I think they use a small uti…
