The US West Coast Component of the COMT Alexander L. Kurapov (PI) Oregon State University Christopher A. EdwardsUniversity of California at Santa Cruz Yi Chao Remote Sensing Solutions, Inc Objectives Compare 3 existing models as a step toward a coordinated super-regional modeling capability for the U.S. West Coast. All the models are based on ROMS but differ in resolution. The data assimilation components are different for each system. Pros and cons of each system will be analyzed. Assess accuracy in forecasting surface and subsurface fields. Compare performance of 3 different bio-chemical models (NPZDO, NEMURO, COSINE) within a single ROMS domain. 10

Mission To use targeted research and development to accelerate the transition of scientific and technical advances from the coastal and ocean modeling research community to improve identified operational ocean products and services (i.e. via research to operations and also operations to research). Vision A National Coastal and Ocean Modeling Testbed to enhance the accuracy, reliability, and scope of the federal suite of operational ocean modeling products, while ensuring its diverse user community is better equipped to solve challenging coastal problems and recognize the COMT to be where the best coastal science is operationalized.
