Global Ocean Forecast System (GOFS) Version 2.6. User's Manual

Abstract

The purpose of this User's Manual (UM) is to describe the components, order of execution, setup and operational run of the Global Ocean Forecast System (GOFS) version 2.6. The emphasis of the document is on the additions to the system, mainly Naval Coupled Data Assimilation System (NCODA), and the coupling with PIPS 3.0. Flowcharts are included to describe the global NCOM inputs, execution, outputs, and the launch of the PIPS 3.0 system. Information on obtaining the GOFS through a Subversion repository is also included.
