Regional Hydrodynamic Model Outputs of the NOAA Port of New York and New Jersey Operational Forecast System (NYOFS)
CO-OPS NYOFS
NOAA's National Ocean Service (NOS) has developed a Port of New York and New Jersey Operational Forecast System (NYOFS). The cornerstone of NYOFS is an advanced three-dimensional hydrodynamic model that uses realtime water-level and wind data and other inputs to predict the water levels and currents at thousands of locations throughout the harbor. The system runs in both nowcast and forecast modes. The nowcast mode is driven by real-time water levels and winds from the New York/New Jersey PORTS®, and is updated hourly. The forecast mode performs 30-hour forecasts four times a day. Primary inputs for this mode include information from the nowcast model, tidal harmonics, and forecasts of subtidal water levels and winds provided by NOAA's National Weather Service numerical models.
