Abstract:
"Disclaimer: The Northern Gulf of Mexico Operational Forecast System (NGOFS) has been implemented by NOAA's
National Ocean Service (NOS) to provide the maritime user community with short-term predictions of water
levels, water currents, water temperatures and salinity of the northern Gulf of Mexico. NGOFS uses a
numerical hydrodynamic model to generate the nowcast and forecast information; therefore, they should be
considered as model-generated nowcast and forecast guidance . For more detailed information related to the
OFS disclaimer, please visit at the Disclaimers web page
(https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/disclaimers.html)."
Purpose:
This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
