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 Operational Global Ocean Prediction Systems

Download or read book Operational Global Ocean Prediction Systems written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several first generation global and basin-scale ocean prediction systems are already running in real time in operational, semi-operational or pre-operational mode. They provide ocean forecasts ranging from 2 to 30 days. Most assimilate sea surface temperature, satellite altimeter and temperature profile data. Horizontal resolution ranges from 1 degree to 1/16 degree and 7 to 40 layers or levels in the vertical. Nowcast/forecast skill has been demonstrated for mesoscale variability and sea surface temperature. A wide variety of applications has been reported. Boundary conditions for real-time regional and coastal ocean prediction systems is a common one.

Book Coastal Meteorology

  • Author : National Research Council
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 1992-02-01
  • ISBN : 0309046874
  • Pages : 112 pages

Download or read book Coastal Meteorology written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost half the U.S. population lives along the coast. In another 20 years this population is expected to more than double in size. The unique weather and climate of the coastal zone, circulating pollutants, altering storms, changing temperature, and moving coastal currents affect air pollution and disaster preparedness, ocean pollution, and safeguarding near-shore ecosystems. Activities in commerce, industry, transportation, freshwater supply, safety, recreation, and national defense also are affected. The research community engaged in studies of coastal meteorology in recent years has made significant advancements in describing and predicting atmospheric properties along coasts. Coastal Meteorology reviews this progress and recommends research that would increase the value and application of what is known today.

Book Coastal Ocean Modeling Framework on NOAA s High Performance Computer  COMF HPC

Download or read book Coastal Ocean Modeling Framework on NOAA s High Performance Computer COMF HPC written by Aijun Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Coastal Ocean Modeling Framework for NOAA’s High Performance Computer (COMFHPC) is an end-to-end set of common tools for the NOAA National Ocean Service’s (NOS) operational three-dimensional hydrodynamic model-based coastal ocean forecast systems. These forecast systems, in general, are jointly developed by the Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) and the Coast Survey Development Laboratory (CSDL) of the Office of Coast Survey (OCS) of the National Ocean Service, and implemented and run on NOAA’s High Performance Computers operated by the National Weather Service’s (NWS) National Centers for Environmental Prediction’s (NCEP) Central Operations (NCO). The COMF-HPC consists of a set of standards and a comprehensive software infrastructure which is shared by all NOS’ hydrodynamic-model operational forecast systems used to generate all input files, such as meteorological forcing, lateral open boundary forcing, river forcing, and model runtime control files, etc. required to run a NOS Operational Forecast System (OFS) which are based on hydrodynamic models. The use of COMF-HPC by all NOS operational forecast systems will allow a multiplicity of forecast systems to be operated and maintained in an efficient and robust manner. COMF-HPC will help to ensure a high time-and-cost efficiency for OFS development, transition, and operational maintenance. This document is organized as follows. Section 1 introduces the background of the COMF-HPC, including its development history, infrastructure, and data flows and the logics of the OFS execution. Section 2 describes the data sets and static files involved in the COMF-HPC system. Section 3 describes the three main control files in the COMF-HPC system. Section 4 explains script and FORTRAN programs in COMF-HPC. Section 5 describes processes to implement an operational forecast system under COMF-HPC environment. Section 6 describes key immediate and final OFS output files residing in the OFS work directory. Section 7 describes the archive of the OFS outputs. Section 8 is a general instruction to diagnose and fix common failures occurred during execution of an operational forecast system. COMF-HPC was originally developed and implemented on the High-Performance Computing Systems of Central Computer System (CCS). On 25 July 2013, NOAA transitioned all NCEP operated Production Suite including NOS OFSs to the new Weather & Climate Operational Supercomputing System (WCOSS), named Tide and Gyer. Therefore, COMF-HPC was transitioned to WCOSS operating system environment as well. The major changes are using FORTRAN compiler, otherwise, there are no significant differences of COMF-HPC on CCS and WCOSS"--Executive Summary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Advanced Study Courses in the field of Marine Science and Technology were part of the training programme developed from 1989 until 1999 within MAST, the Marine Science and Technology Programme of the European Union. They were related to the core topics of MAST Programme, marine systems research, extreme marine environments, regional Sea research, coastal systems research and engineering, and marine technology. The main objectives of these study courses were to further advance education in topics at the forefront of scien tific and technological development in Europe, and to improve the communication between students and experienced scientists on a European and international level. Over the years the Programme sponsored around 30 Advanced Study Courses. They took place in ten different member states of the European Union and their contribution in the formation of a European scientific community was significant. They also encouraged exchanges and contacts with several countries around the world such as United States, the third Mediterranean countries and others. The Course on Ocean Forecasting was one ofthe most successful with regard to its con tent, number of applications for participation and students satisfaction. When considering the need for the Advanced Study Course on Ocean Forecast ing, it is important to remember that the Oceans and Seas have always played a central role throughout the history of mankind. This is seen from the times of the ancient civilizations ofEgypt and Greece with the Phoenician traders, to the Viking voyages of exploration and discovery in medieval times.
