SE region is linked oceanographically and experiences similar forcing (winds and river runoff). A merged information system will help address scientific and societal issues Loop Current/ Florida Current/ Gulf Stream

SEA-COOS Over-Arching Goal To significantly increase the quantity and quality of environmental information from the coastal ocean of the SE U.S. and facilitate its use in a wide range of societal, scientific, and educational applications Initial Focus 1)physical ocean state estimation 2)Fisheries 3)Biogeochemical indicators

Products portal – GIS-like but open-source and browser independent

First variable – winds Can pan and zoom without loss of resolution…

…even animate…

He and Weisberg – USF – studied ocean response to different wind forcing on WFS. Ocean model domain in relation to the EDAS grid and in-situ wind stations

A comparison between an OI blending of NOAA EDAS and observed winds with the observations at all WFS buoy and coastal stations sampled during a peak upwelling event on March He and Weisberg – USF – studied ocean response to different wind forcing on WFS.

EDAS wind forcing OA analysis (EDAS & Obs.) wind forcing Ocean model simulation improvements with OA wind analyses (Weisberg)

Beginning to compare EDAS and measured winds on a larger scale Magnitude of average difference in speed (Jan 13-Feb 10) m/s

And average difference in direction (largely offshore?) m/s

Now working to include additional variables…sea surface temperature next

Portal includes querying capability of all layers…

Also…. A cloud free SST product, designed to help with real-time modeling (Talk: He and Weisberg)

Outreach/education/collaboration with : Federal agencies (by PIs) – to coordinate resource allocation and address national needs Management agencies (by Sea Grant and PIs) – to address regional need and impact policy decisions Non-scientific users (by Sea Grant/COSEE) – to address local need and increase stakeholders awareness of the system Broader science community (by PIs) – to increase scope of issues addressed by the system Private industry (by all) – to develop products and consider components that can be transitioned (poster:Thigpen et al.)

SEACOOS Summary Organizational structure established; working with SERA on greater regional engagement Multiple sensor platforms operating Initial data exchange standards adopted, and observation mergers underway Subregional modeling efforts coordinated and barotropic results on website Evaluation of model capabilities against observations underway Outreach user surveys initiated, working with regional COSEEs Big role in Interoperability demo (testing OGC-based exchange of GIS layers)
