MSEAS Probabilistic Analysis and Forecasts for 15 Mar 0000Z to 20 Mar 0000Z 2024, Issued 15 Mar 2024
MSEAS 1/25° Probabilistic Ocean Forecasts (atmospheric and tidally-forced forecasts initialized from both downscaled Mercator and downscaled HYCOM)
Physics-balanced stochastic models and ESSE dominant subspace decompositions are used to represent the dominant uncertainties in the initial and boundary conditions for T, S, u, v, w, and eta fields for the HYCOM and Mercator modeling system fields, in the MSEAS model parameters, in the atmospheric surface forcing flux fields, and in the tidal forcing parameters.

Note: The units of horizontal velocity are cm/s.
