| OSU-NOPP is a multi-investigator coastal ocean circulation observation, modeling and assimilation project with industrial, academic, and government partners. gif format or pdf format. |
 | The goal of the project is to develop nowcast and forecast systems for wind-driven coastal ocean flow fields. gif format or pdf format. |
 | Extensive meteorological and hydrographic measurements were made. gif format or pdf format. |
 | Several surface radar systems were utilized. gif format or pdf format. |
 | Atmospheric modeling was used to estimate the spatial variability in the wind field. gif format or pdf format. |
 | Atmospheric model results are being compared to measured wind stresses. gif format or pdf format. |
 | Numerical modeling is a major component of the project. Model results will be compared to observed flow fields and hydrography. gif format or pdf format. |
 | Data assimilation techniques are being utilized to optimize model performance. gif format or pdf format. |
