Gulf of Mexico NCOM forecasts during the LASER experiment (January-April 2016)

The model represents the 3D temperature, salinity, velocity and surface elevation of the Gulf of Mexico during the Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER) time period from January through April 2016. This dataset includes the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM). This dataset was created by the Consortium for Advanced Research on Transport of Hydrocarbon in the Environment (CARTHE). This research was made possible by a grant from BP/The Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative. River forcing is based on monthly climatological observed transports.
