Pre-processing of forcing data for the Gulf of Maine Model Local forcing: meso-scale surface wind stress and heat flux; Remote-forcing: upstream open boundary on the Scotian Shelf; Assimilated with the satellite-derived SST, hydrographic and current data;

Short-wave Long-wave Latent Sensible

The TOGA/COARE (TC) heat flux algorithm developed by Fairall et al. (1996, 2001): More accurate skin water temperature; Better paramterization of surface roughness; More realistic vertical profiles for stable and unstable weather conditions Accountable wind gustiness
