    <dct:description>The Regional Ocean Forecast System (ROFS) has been developed jointly by the Ocean Modeling Branch of the National Weather Service's Environmental Modeling Center, the National Ocean Service's Coast Survey Development Lab, Princeton University, and Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO). ROFS is based on a hydrodynamic, three-dimensional ocean circulation model (Princeton Ocean Model) which simulates temperature, salinity, surface elevation, and currents for a region off the U.S. East Coast from ~30 to 47N and out to 50W. The model is driven at the ocean surface boundary by heat, moisture, and momentum fluxes provided by NCEP's Eta mesoscale atmospheric forecast model. The ocean model is driven along its open (that is, southern and eastern) boundaries by climatological estimates of temperature, salinity, and transport. The spatial resolution of the model varies from approximately 20km offshore to about 10km nearshore. The coastal boundary corresponds to the location of the 10m isobath. In the vertical, an 18-layer sigma (terrain-following) coordinate system is used with at least half the layers concentrated in the upper 100m. Tidal forcing is included in the model.
At 24-hour intervals, Gulf Stream north-wall-location data and satellite altimeter data are assimilated with an OI-based algorithm from Princeton University. Gulf Stream location data are provided by NAVOCEANO and sea surface height anomalies (SSHAs) derived from satellite altimeter data are provided by the NOAA Laboratory for Satellite Altimetry. These data are input for correction of the model's sea surface height field and assimilation into the subsurface temperature and salinity fields using correlation functions statistically derived from the model itself. Gulf Stream location data for the current day and TOPEX data from the prior 10-day orbital cycle, are used in this analysis step, which provides the input fields for the second analysis step.
Sea surface temperature (SST) data from in-situ and satellite observing platforms are assimilated into the updated fields from the first data assimilation step, in a nowcast/data assimilation cycle producing initial conditions for the 48-h forecast. In-situ observations are from fixed and drifting buoys, C-MAN stations, and ships. Remotely sensed observations are MCSST retrievals from the AVHRR sensor onboard the NOAA polar orbiting satellites. Surface atmospheric forcing is obtained from 3-hourly analyses of the NCEP's Eta Data Assimilation System (EDAS).
The forecast cycle generates regional ocean forecasts out to 48 hours. Surface forcing is obtained from the 3-hourly surface fields from NCEP's Eta mesoscale atmospheric prediction model.
