Ocean Forecasts for July 2000

During our intense month of summer research, there will be 7 model forecast cycles run by the ROMS. Below we have listed those cycles for which we have created a 3 day forecast. There are several ensemble forecast run per cycle. Each utilizing either K-Profile Parameterization or Mellor-Yamada Level 2.5 vertical mixing scheme. They are initialized by using the best ensemble forecast from the previous cycle or using MODAS.
