NCEP NAM forecast - 3km model

This page contains atmospheric forcing products that were processed from NCEP NAM atmospheric forecast data to obtain the fluxes shown. To the right, the bathymetry (m) in the extended domain is shown. Below, the daily average wind stress (and wind stress magnitude), net heat flux, evaporation minus precipitation (E-P), and shortwave radiation flux is shown.

We wish to thank Matthew Pyle, Eric Rogers, Geoff DiMego, Arun Chawla, and the entire NCEP team for their kind help and support with utilizing this data.
