If I were you, I would look at the previous publications regarding the Caspian sea. They provide a Data section which has usually the information about the sources of the data such as bathymetry, wind etc. After collecting the data, you can write them into your netcdf files using ncwrite or by changing the codes in ROMS-TOOLS

Mr m567tej
If you don't need high resolution, forcing can be found in common data servers such as reanalysis or icoads, also for BC and Ic you can use soda.
I think ufuk truncuglu in ictp has modeled that area.
