Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Coastal and Estuarine Studies, Volume 56. Coastal Ocean Prediction is being published during a period when operational coastal ocean prediction systems are emerging in Europe, Asia, Australia, and North America. Some of these systems are linked to activities of the Global Ocean Observing System, sponsored by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission, World Meteorological Organization, United Nations Environmental Program, and the International Council of Scientific Unions. The Global Ocean Observing System is itself an emergent program of model?]based operational (i.e., continual and governmentally sanctioned) monitoring with coastal ocean, as well as fully global, components.

Book excerpt: The goal of COPS is to couple a program of regular observations to numerical models, through techniques of data assimilation, in order to provide a predictive capability for the US coastal ocean including the Great Lakes, estuaries, and the entire Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The objectives of the program include: determining the predictability of the coastal ocean and the processes that govern the predictability; developing efficient prediction systems for the coastal ocean based on the assimilation of real-time observations into numerical models; and coupling the predictive systems for the physical behavior of the coastal ocean to predictive systems for biological, chemical, and geological processes to achieve an interdisciplinary capability. COPS will provide the basis for effective monitoring and prediction of coastal ocean conditions by optimizing the use of increased scientific understanding, improved observations, advanced computer models, and computer graphics to make the best possible estimates of sea level, currents, temperatures, salinities, and other properties of entire coastal regions.

Book excerpt: Several major problems, namely, uncertain surface forcing function, unknown open boundary conditions (OBC), and pressure gradient error using the acoordinate, affect the accuracy of coastal ocean prediction. At open lateral boundaries where the numerical grid ends, the fluid motion should be unrestricted. Ideal open boundaries are transparent to motions. The most popular and successful scheme is the adjoint method. The disadvantages that may restrict its use are ocean-model dependency and difficulty in deriving the adjoint equation when the model contains rapid (discontinuous) processes, such as change of ocean mixed layer from entrainment to shallowing regime. Development of a ocean-model independent algorithm for determining the OBC becomes urgent.

Book excerpt: The need for accurate prediction of the coastal ocean environment conceivably extends to the entire world's coastline. Since not all regions are of sufficient economic and sociological importance to justify operational modeling on a continuous basis, it is necessary to have available an alternative approach for short term on demand forecasting. Such prediction may be in response to a man made catastrophe or natural disaster. It may also be useful for coastal management in both developing and developed countries. Developing a coastal ocean forecast system is a complex effort that entails data processing as well as numerical modeling. In order to evaluate the coastal hydrodynamic model, which is the kernel of the forecast system, it is necessary to acquire a wide range of oceanographic data in different environments. Comparing model predictions to such field observations will permit the determination of the usefulness of the model tor real time applications. This paper summarizes some of the data processing methods being incorporated into a prototype relocatable forecast system. As an example of the utility of the model, it is compared to observations of temperature from the inner continental shelf of southern California.
