Figure 3. (a) Statistics for the month of February between the 1/12° HYCOM system and
available Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) profile observations. The RMS
difference between the MEDS data, MODAS3D (MODAS), and different climatologies
(MODAS (CLIM), Levitus (LEVIT), and the Generalized Digital Environmental Model
(GDEM3)) is also shown. (b) Statistics for the month of May between the 1/12° HYCOM
system and available PIRATA profile observations. The RMS between the PIRATA data,
MODAS3D, and MODAS climatology (CLIM) is also shown.
Figure 4. The transport in the Florida Current at 27°N from the 1/12° Atlantic near real-time
system are shown with dotted lines. Observations from the cable data are shown in solid
black.
