COAMPS Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System; regional mesoscale model, multi-nested to 2 km resolution within NOGAPS. NAVDAS Navy Atmospheric Variational Data Assimilation System; 3D- VAR data assimilation for NOGAPS and COAMPS. GFDN Navy implementation of the GFDL TC model; only moveable-nest TC model operational in all ocean basins (critical part of 4-member CONW and 5-member CONU for extended TC forecasts). Nested within NOGAPS. WW3 WaveWatch III spectral ocean wave model; global and regional implementations, driven by NOGAPS and COAMPS. EFS NOGAPS-based global 18-member 10-day Ensemble Forecast System (part of NAEFS and JEFS collaborations); includes 18-member global WW3 ensemble. NAAPS Navy Atmospheric Aerosol Prediction System; only operational global aerosol model. Atmospheric optical properties output feeds Target Acquisition Weapons Software (TAWS). Driven by NOGAPS. Models OverviewCentralized Atmospheric Analysis and Prediction System (CAAPS) Provides on-demand execution of COAMPS and other models as a Web service. Relocatable nests, typically at 54 km, 18 km, 6 km, and 2 km horizontal resolution. Web GUI allows authenticated users to create and run a new COAMPS area within 15 minutes. Coupling with ocean models in R i.e., 19 trillion calculations per second)2The FNMOC Computer systems are also linked directly to 120 TB of disk space and 160 TB of tape archive space.FNMOC Computer Systems1,2NAMETYPE#CPUsMEMORY (GB)PEAK SPEED (GFLOPS)OSAMS1SGI ORIGIN 38005125121000TRIX AMS2SGI ORIGIN 3800128128200TRIX AMS3SGI ORIGIN 3900256256700TRIX AMS4SGI ORIGIN 3900256256700TRIX AMS5IBM p655+ 1923841200AIX AMS6IBM p655+ 96192600AIX ATOS2IBM 1350s/x440s/x345s 4386452190Linux CAAPSIBM e1350s148272740Linux A2-0Linux Networx Custom Supersystem 928180010000LinuxDC-3IBM Cluster 1600/POWER5+2565121900AIXTBDUndisclosedTBDTBDTBDLinux TOTAL3200495719230MILCONNew Military Construction (MILCON) Project $7.3M project with groundbreaking planned for July 2007 and completion by June 2008 New construction of 9400 sq. ft. and Rehabilitation of 4800 sq. ft.
