New System Gives Unprecedented Forecasts of Earth's Second Largest Ocean

WASHINGTON, NOAA's Environmental Modeling Center ,
Marine Modeling and Analysis Branch, has implemented a new revolutionary Real-
Time Ocean Forecast System that will provide mariners with "nowcasts" and
five-day forecasts for the entire North Atlantic Ocean.D. "These new capabilities provide us with the
potential to mitigate impacts from natural hazards and are just one example of
the tangible benefits of an integrated observation system.noaa.m.
