Regional Hydrodynamic Model Outputs of the NOAA Northern Gulf of America Operational Forecast System (NGOFS2)

The Northern Gulf of America Operational Forecast System 2 (NGOFS2) is based on a three-dimensional FVCOM model that runs on NOAA's High Performance Computing System (HPC). NGOFS2 relies on CO-OPS' real-time water level, temperature and salinity observations, NWS Extratropical Storm Surge (ETSS) forecasts, the Advanced CIRCulation Model (ADCIRC) ec2001 tide database, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) river data, and the Global Real-Time Ocean Forecast System (G-RTOFS). All CO-OPS official real-time products, including nowcast and forecast guidance from NGOFS2 are monitored by the CO-OPS's Continuous Operational Real-Time Monitoring System (CORMS). CORMS provides 24 hour per day, 7 day per week monitoring and quality control of sensors and data in order to ensure the availability, accuracy, and quality of tide, water level, current, and other marine environmental information. CORMS is intended to identify invalid and erroneous data and information before application of the data by real-time and near real-time users.
