Description
The OPENCoastS service assembles on-demand circulation and water quality forecast systems for selected coastal areas and keeps them running operationally for a period defined by the user. This service generates daily forecasts of hydrodynamics (water levels, velocities, wave parameters, salinity and temperature) and water quality (generic tracer, fecal contamination indicators) over the region of interest for 48 hours, based on numerical simulations of the relevant physical processes.
