Modeling the Central and Northern California Coastal Ocean
A three-level nested ROMS centered around Monterey Bay (MB) is developed with
a spatial resolution of 15 km, 5 km, and 1.5 km covering the U.S. West coast,
central California coast, and Monterey Bay, respectively. The MB ROMS is forced
with the real-time wind (Chao et al., Geophysical Research Letters, 30(1), 1013, 2003)
and includes a ten-compartment ecosystem model developed by Chai and Chao et al.
(Journal of Oceanography, 59, 461-475, 2003). It has the capability of assimilating
both the historical and real-time data (in situ and remotely sensed) through a
3-dimensional variational (3DVAR) method. The MB ROMS has been systematically
evaluated against observations during the August 2003 field experiment as part
of Autonomous Ocean Sampling Network (AOSN).

Live Access Server
Live Access Server allows users to visualize data with on-the-fly graphs, request
custom subsets of variables in a choice of file formats and compare variables.
