Oceanographic Research Leading to Real-Time Global Ocean Prediction
Oceanography Division, US Naval Research Laboratory
The Naval Research Laboratory's, Oceanography Division, conducts research based on obtaining in situ ocean measurements as well as satellite observations to understand ocean processes...leading to the development of physics based numerical ocean models. These models are combined with real-time ocean observations to provide global ocean forecasts of currents, waves, temperature, salinity, ice and water clarity.
