UFS Coastal Applications Team - Water Quantity Marine Navigation Sub-Application Tiger Team: Report UFS Coastal Applications Team - Water Quantity Marine Navigation Sub-Application Tiger Team: Report

The focus of the UFS Coastal Applications Team (CAT) - Water Quantity is on the physical properties of the hydrodynamic models. The members on the team are from NOAA, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), and academic institutions. This report is a product from the marine navigation sub-application under the UFS CAT - Water Quantity with the goal to provide criteria for an objective selection of an oceanographic model(s) to be part of the UFS that supports the marine navigation community, i.e., products that will be used by the marine navigation community. The selected model(s) will have long-term, i.e. 10-15 years, implications for operational oceanography in the U.S.
