Coastal Marine Demonstration of Forecast Information to Mariners for the U.S. East Coast

Abstract

Our long-term goal is to develop the capability to estimate and predict the coastal and estuarine environment and deliver these estimates to mariners, managers, and scientists. Relevant atmospheric variables include wind, temperature, humidity, precipitation, and visibility. Oceanic variables of interest include waves, currents, temperature, salinity, and water level.
