The Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) is a free-surface, terrain-following, primitive equations ocean model widely used by the scientific community for a diverse range of applications. The operational Northeast Atlantic (NEATL) model is an implementation of the ROMS model that Covers all Irish waters. The NEATL Dataset contains Parameters output by this model such as sea surface height (m), sea temperature (C), salinity, sea water X velocity (m/s) and sea water Y velocity (m/s). The NEATL model Covers a portion of the eastern Atlantic ocean that from Iberian Peninsula to Iceland. The average horizontal resolution of the model grid is approximately 1900 metres but the horizontal horizontal resolution around Irish coastal waters is 1100 to 1500 metres. Model data was produced for the previous 30 days and 3 days into the future. The NEATL model was an operational model forced by operational Atmospheric (ECMWF) and boundary (Copernicus GLOBAL_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_PHY_001_024) forcing. The NEATL operational system has provided a daily 3-day forecast and a weekly 7-day analysis. The NEATL model was run to forecast oceanographic Parameters such as temperature, sea level and currents level for Irish coastal waters to support a variety of end-user services such as HAB (harmful Algal bloom) warning systems and maritime search and rescue. The NEATL model was Operated by the Oceanographic Services team within Ocean Science and Information Services division of the Marine Institute (Ireland). Model completed for the days it is operational and produced output.区域海洋建模系统（Regional Ocean Modeling System，简称ROMS）是一款具备自由表面、地形追随特性的原始方程海洋模式，被科研界广泛应用于多类多样化研究场景。 业务化东北大西洋（Northeast Atlantic，简称NEATL）模式是ROMS模式的一款应用实现，覆盖爱尔兰全部海域。NEATL数据集包含该模式输出的各类海洋参数，具体包括海面高度（单位：米）、海水温度（单位：摄氏度）、盐度、海水x方向流速（单位：米/秒）以及海水y方向流速（单位：米/秒）。 该NEATL模式覆盖东大西洋从伊比利亚半岛至冰岛的部分海域。模式网格的平均水平分辨率约为1900米，爱尔兰近岸海域的水平分辨率则为1100至1500米。模式生成的数据涵盖过去30天与未来3天的时段。 NEATL模式为业务化运行模式，其强迫场由欧洲中期天气预报中心（ECMWF）提供的大气强迫数据，以及哥白尼全球分析预报物理数据集（Copernicus GLOBAL_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_PHY_001_024）提供的边界强迫数据驱动。 NEATL业务化系统每日提供3天期海洋预报，每周提供7天期海洋分析产品。 NEATL模式主要针对爱尔兰近岸海域的海洋物理参数（如海水温度、海平面高度及海流）开展预报，以支撑有害藻华（Harmful Algal Bloom，简称HAB）预警系统、海上搜救等多类终端用户服务。 该业务化系统由爱尔兰海洋研究所海洋科学与信息服务部门下属的海洋服务团队负责运行，在业务运行时段内完成数据计算并生成对应输出产品。
