Ocean Forecasts for July 2001

During our intense month of summer research, there will be 7 model forecast cycles run by the ROMS. Below we have listed those cycles for which we have created a 3 day forecast. There are several ensemble forecast runs per cycle. Each utilizing either K-Profile Parameterization or Mellor-Yamada Level 2.5 vertical mixing scheme. ROMS is forced with high resolution COAMPS (research) and coarse resolution COAMPS (operational).
