A fully three dimensional, multivariate, variational ocean data assimilation system has been
developed that produces simultaneous analyses of temperature, salinity, geopotential and …

The US Navy's operational global ocean nowcast/forecast system is presently comprised of
the 0.08° HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) and the Navy Coupled Ocean Data …

During the past five to ten years, a broad partnership of institutions under NOPP sponsorship
has collaborated in developing and demonstrating the performance and application of eddy …

This paper reviews the historical development of concepts and practices in the science of
ocean predictions. It begins with meteorology, which conducted the first forecasting …

Ocean modeling is a powerful tool for simulating the physical, chemical, and biological
processes of the ocean, which is the foundation for marine science research and operational …

During the last 15 years, operational oceanography systems have been developed in
several countries around the world. These developments have been fostered primarily by …

Sea surface temperature (SST) prediction has received increasing attention in recent years
due to its paramount importance in the various fields of oceanography. Existing studies have …

Ocean data assimilation has matured to the point that observations are now routinely
combined with model forecasts to produce a variety of ocean products. Approaches to ocean …

The feasibility of global ocean weather prediction was just emerging as the Global Ocean
Data Assimilation Experiment (GODAE) began in 1997. Ocean weather includes …

Waves and currents create bottom shear stress, a force at the seabed that influences
sediment texture distribution, micro-topography, habitat, and anthropogenic use. This paper …
