Surge and Tide Operational Forecast System (STOFS) - 2D
STOFS-2D-Global is a two-dimensional depth averaged global component based on the ADvanced CIRCulation (ADCIRC) model core. STOFS-2D-Global runs four times daily producing numerical storm surge and tide model forecast guidance globally out to 180 hours. The model is forced by real time output of winds and pressure from the NCEP Global Forecast System (GFS). The domain of the operational STOFS-2D-Global forecast guidance covers the entire globe, including the floodplain of the coastal U.S., the Caribbean area surrounding Puerto Rico, and Alaska.
STOFS-2D-Global is the NOAA source for International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) S-104 water level forecast guidance for marine navigation.
