Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) 6-day, 3-hourly forecast for the region surrounding Guam and parts of the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) at approximately 2-km resolution. Boundary conditions provided by the wider ROMS model for the region surrounding the Western North Pacific (ROMS_MARI) at approximately 4-km resolution. Atmospheric forcing generated by the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model for the region surrounding Guam and parts of the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) (WRF_Guam) at approximately 3-km resolution. Tide forcing uses the Oregon State University (OSU) Tidal Prediction Software (OTPS) TOPEX/Poseidon global inverse solution (TPXO) to derive barotropic tidal elevation and velocity. Data are assimilated over the previous 3 days using all available observations to improve the model estimate of current ocean state (its nowcast) before forecasts are run. Assimilated observations may include satellite-based sea surface temperatures from MODIS, AVHRR, or OSTIA; satellite-based sea surface height from AVISO; and in-situ water temperature and salinity profiles from ARGO floats. While considerable effort has been made to implement all model components in a thorough, correct, and accurate manner, numerous sources of error are possible. As such, please use these data with the caution appropriate for any ocean related activity.

Data from the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) of the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) at the University of Hawaii. PacIOOS is one of eleven regional observing programs in the U.S. supporting the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS). The PacIOOS region includes the U.S. Pacific Region (Hawaii, Guam, American Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands), the Pacific nations in Free Association with the U.S. (Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of Palau), and the U.S. Minor Outlying Islands (Howland, Baker, Johnston, Jarvis, Kingman, Palmyra, Midway, Wake). These data are served using GeoServer in a variety of interoperable data services and output formats: http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoserver/. See http://geoserver.org for further documentation; and GeoServer's WFS documentation at: http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wms/. Please note that cached versions of many of these map layers exist in our GeoServer via GeoWebCache using WMS-C. This would be the preferred method of accessing some of the larger data layers for improved access speeds: http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoserver/gwc/service/wms?request=GetCapabilities&version=1.1.1&tiled=true. Use of WMS-C is similar to traditional WMS but with the addition of the "tiled=true" parameter, which triggers GeoServer to pull map tiles from GeoWebCache if they have been previously generated. Lastly, GeoExplorer can be used to view these layers online at http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoexplorer/.

PacIOOS stores and serves datasets and imagery for and on behalf of the US Pacific Territories and affiliated territories. Datasets are reproduced for the primary purpose of visualization and exploration of the datasets. Datasets are re-projected to WGS84 but are available in their original projections. Metadata is available when it has been received. A compliant implementation of WMS 1.1.1 plus most of the SLD 1.0 extension (dynamic styling). Can also generate PDF, SVG, KML, GeoRSS Reference to PacIOOS is requested if accessing or making use of the datasets within.
