3 For coupled ocean-atmosphere prediction.
4 To give NAVO/Navy experience with HYCOM without official operational status;
to be replaced by global HYCOM including the 1/25 Black Sea HYCOM
5 Under the National Ocean Partnership Program (NOPP), 1/12 Atlantic HYCOM
demo is already running in near real-time. Includes the Mediterranean Sea.

NOAA/NCEP Goals for Ocean Prediction
Eddy-resolving Atlantic and Pacific Ocean prediction systems with high
resolution along the U.S. coast and ~1 week forecasts
[Participation in HYCOM NOPP GODAE project led by D.B. Rao and Carlos Lozano]
- Emphasis on US coastal regions, Loop Current, Gulf Stream
- Seamless boundary and initial conditions to regional ocean and bio-geochemical models
Coupled atmosphere-ocean-wave for hurricane forecasts
- WRF-HYCOM-WAVEWATCHIII (2007)
Eddy-permitting (1/4 or matching scale) world oceans forecast system for
medium range (up to 6 weeks)
- Boundary conditions for basin-scale ocean models
- SST estimate to support NWP (regional and global)
- Coupled global atmosphere – ocean forecast system

Consistency NAT Hycom and WFS
ROMS
WFS ROMS SST and surface
velocity is shown inside the dashed
line and outside of this area is the
NAT HYCOM model.
Warm water is detached from the
Loop Current and transported
northward as mesoscale eddies
and filaments.

Comparison with in situ velocity


Velocity at station C15 (10m isobath).
Due to a better representation of the coast geometry, the WFS
ROMS model provides better results than the NAT HYCOM. The
OI Winds also improve the model accuracy.

SAB Nested Finite Element Model
UNC-SAB modeling system sequence that nests the regional-scale QUODDY
implementation (middle) within the 1/12 deg operational HYCOM-GODAE model

and tidal inlets along the Georgia/South Carolina coast and extends to the shelfbreak.
