1 Super-Regional Testbed for Improving Forecasts of Environmental Processes for the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico Coasts The Role of the SURA Testbed in the Improvement of U.S. Coastal and Estuarine Prediction John Harding, Northern Gulf Institute Carl Friedrichs, Virginia Institute of Marine Science Rick Luettich, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Rich Signell, United States Geological Survey Coastal Zone July2011 U.S.
2 U.S. Super-Regional Testbed Goals 1. Build a common infrastructure for access, analysis and visualization of all ocean model data produced by the Federal Backbone and the IOOS Regions. 2. Develop skill metrics and assess models in three different regions and dynamical regimes 3. Transition models, tools, toolkits and other capabilities to federal operational facilities 4. Build stronger relationships between academia and operational centers through collaboration
