Regional Hydrodynamic Model Outputs of the NOAA Salish Sea and Columbia River Operational Forecast System (SSCOFS)

Description

NOAA's National Ocean Service (NOS) has developed a Salish Sea and Columbia River Operational Forecast System (SSCOFS). The SSCOFS runs on NOAA's Weather and Climate Operational Supercomputing System (WCOSS) in a Coastal Ocean Modeling Framework developed by CO-OPS. As a result, the SSCOFS has direct access to NWS operational meteorological products that it needs to run reliably. Nowcast and forecast guidance cycles are run 4 times a day (every 6 hours). All SSCOFS nowcast and forecast guidance are monitored by the CO-OPS's Continuous Operational Real-Time Monitoring System (CORMS). CORMS provides 24 hour per day, 7 day per week monitoring and quality control of sensors and data in order to ensure the availability, accuracy, and quality of tide, water level, current, and other marine environmental information. CORMS is intended to identify invalid and erroneous data and information before application of the data by real-time and near real-time users.
