The Ocean Modeling Branch conducts a program of research and development in support of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) operational forecasting mission for oceanic prediction. This research and development includes oceanographic analysis, modeling, and forecast guidance products based upon both indirect and in situ observations, sea surface temperature, wind, waves, subsurface temperature and currents etc. It serves as the principal focus for operational oceanography within the NCEP. The Branch evaluates and develops numerical procedures and physical methods that are appropriate for operational surface wind modeling over the global oceans, coastal seas and the Great Lakes, deep and shallow water wave forecast models, coastal ocean modeling and data assimilation, sea ice modeling and quality control of marine observations. The Ocean Modeling Branch publishes research results in various media for dissemination to the world oceanographic and meteorological community.
