Integrating Feature-Oriented High-Resolution Synoptic Observations for MODAS

Abstract

Our long-term goal is to develop a generic real-time shallow water capability for the Modular Ocean Data Assimilation System (MODAS), which will provide high horizontal resolution (1-10km) synoptic observations for operational nowcasting and forecasting for the U.S. Navy. Concurrently, we will develop a set of generic and portable shallow water feature models for application to shallow waters (< 30 m) anywhere in the world.
