The US Marine Modeling and Analysis Branch (MMAB) is part of the Environmental Modeling Center, which is responsible for the development of improved numerical weather and marine prediction modeling systems within NCEP/NWS. It provides analysis and real-time forecast guidance (1-16 days) on marine meteorological, oceanographic, and cryospheric parameters over the global oceans and coastal areas of the US.

Products include:

  • Ocean Waves
  • Sea ice
  • Marine Meteorology
    • Marine Winds - Satellite Remote Sensing
    • Coastal Ocean Visibility
    • Open Ocean Visibility
    • Vessel Icing
  • Sea Surface Temperature
  • Regional Ocean Forecast System
  • Automated Gulf Stream
