We consider the 2D simplified Bardina turbulence model, with horizontal filtering, in an unbounded strip-like domain. We prove global existence and uniqueness of weak solutions in a suitable class of anisotropic weighted Sobolev spaces.

Keywords: Simplified Bardina model, Navier-Stokes equations, turbulent flows, Large Eddy Simulation (LES), anisotropic filters, unbounded domains, global attractor.
