Surge and Tide Operational Forecast System (STOFS) - 3D
STOFS-3D-Atlantic is a three-dimensional (3D) model component for the Atlantic basin (STOFS-3D-Atl) based on the Semi-implicit Cross-scale Hydroscience Integrated System Model (SCHISM) core. STOFS-3D-Atl runs daily to provide one day of nowcast and four days of water level and surface current forecast guidance. STOFS-3D-Atl components make use of outputs from the National Water Model (NWM) to include inland hydrology and extreme precipitation effects on coastal flooding, forecast guidance from the NCEP Global Forecast System (GFS) and High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) model as the surface meteorological forcing, the combined tidal and subtidal water level, and three-dimensional water temperature, salinity, and currents from the NCEP Global Real-Time Ocean Forecast System (G-RTOFS) as the open ocean boundary forcing.
