Objectives
Operational forecasting
National funding
Support of water level prediction and storm surge warning service
Drift- and dispersion predictions in case of marine pollution (e.g. oil)
Support of SAR and various customers (navy, fisheries, tourism ...)
Downscaling strategy
Nested models driven by tidal predictions and meteorological forecasts of German Weather Service (DWD), prediction range: 3 days
| Why does this project need large-scale estimates? | Boundary data for water level, salinity and temperature (later: SPM, nutrients and plankton) Real time boundary forcing |
| Validation Strategy | Validation of water levels, currents, temperature and salinity in German waters on routine basis (annual, monthly, weekly, daily) |
Project status
Operational activity, ongoing
