Regional Hydrodynamic Model Outputs of the NOAA Northern Gulf of America Operational Forecast System (NGOFS)
NOAA's National Ocean Service (NOS) has developed the Northern Gulf of America Operational Forecast System (NGOFS) including two nested Northeast and Northwest Gulf of America Operational Forecast Systems (NEGOFS/NWGOFS). NGOFS is based on a three-dimensional FVCOM model that runs on NOAA's High Performance Computing System (HPC). NGOFS provides water levels, currents, water temperature and salinity nowcast and forecast guidance as well as interpolated winds from National Weather Service products for the northern Gulf of America including seven ports at Matagorda Bay, Galveston Bay, Sabine Neches, Calcasieu/Lake Charles, Gulfport, Pascagoula Bay and Mobile Bay, six of which are CO-OPS PORTS® partners. NGOFS runs four times per day and generates 6-hour nowcasts and 48-hour forecast guidance. NGOFS products include time series graphics at station locations and aerial animations for all five parameters (winds, water levels, currents, temperature and salinity).
