dc.description.abstractThe development of an all weather nowcast/forecast system for Galveston Bay by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was discussed. The nowcast/forecast system was developed by using a modified version of the Blumberg-Mellor three-dimensional hydrodynamic model. The nowcast component works directly from the Physical Oceanographic Real Time System (PORTS) universal flat file format (PUFFF) files. Nowcast and forecast results suggest that currents were more problematic especially at Morgans Point at the head of the Bay, where rainfall/runoff flows exhibit considerable impact on currents within the Port of Houston.en_US
