Detailed Description

Using COAWST, we forecast water levels, waves, currents, sediment, and other ocean variables such as temperature and salinity. Ocean dynamics are simulated at coarse resolution (5 km) over the entire North Atlantic Ocean and simulated at high resolution (200 m) along the northern Outer Banks.
