Goal: The Total Water Level Working Group seeks to understand the current state of progress on operational model systems for coastal total water level. To address this goal, we are working to identify forecast and non-forecast models simulating total water level and their characteristics. Ensure that your total water level model system is part of this study by filling out the survey below. - page 1 of 2

What is the name of the forecasting system implementation? (e.g., Tampa Bay Coastal Ocean Model)? *

Provide the name and email address of the Point of Contact for the total water level modeling system. *

How do users access the model? (e.g., website address, server address, Application Programming Interface, link to visualization code repository)

How is Total Water Level defined for this model? (e.g., predicted tide, surge, waves at the shoreline, etc.).

What is the name of the name of the core ocean model used (e.g., Finite Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM), ADvanced CIRCulation (ADCIRC))?

What geographic area does the model cover? (e.g., San Diego, CA)

What is the source for the atmospheric forcing in the model? (e.g., Global Forecast System (GFS))

What modeled or observed terrestrial sources of flooding are considered? (e.g., river discharge from the National Water Model)

What is the source for ocean forcing in the model? (e.g., Surge and Tide Operational Forecast System-2D)

What is the source for wave input in the model? (e.g., Wave Watch III)

How are data or data assimilation included in the model?

What is the resolution of the mesh being used in the model? (e.g., 10 km horizontal, 12 vertical layers)

What is the source of topography and bathymetry for the mesh?

What is the frequency of the output (e.g., daily, hourly), and on what time scale is the output (e.g., 10 day forecast)?

In what format is the output? (e.g., NetCDF)

What is the lag time between the beginning of a simulation and its availability on the server?

What methods, datasets, and/or metrics were used for model evaluation (e.g., USGS gauges, root-mean-square error)?

How can users provide feedback?

How can the Total Water Level Working Group support your modeling efforts? Is there a topic/research area that needs the attention of the Coastal Coupling Community of Practice?

Please suggest other total water level modeling systems that should be included in this effort.
