The SalishSeaNowcast package is a collection of Python modules associated with running the Salish Sea NEMO model in a daily nowcast/forecast mode.
The runs use as-recent-as-available
(typically previous day)
forcing data for the western boundary sea surface height and the Fraser River flow,
and atmospheric forcing from the four-times-daily produced forecast results from the Environment Canada High Resolution Deterministic Prediction System (HRDPS) operational GEM 2.5km resolution model.
The runs are automated using an asynchronous, message-based architecture that:
- obtains the forcing datasets from web services
- pre-processes the forcing datasets into the formats expected by NEMO
- uploads the forcing dataset files to the HPC or cloud-computing facility where the run will be executed
- executes the run
- downloads the results
- prepares a collection of plots from the run results for monitoring purposes
- publishes the plots and the processing log to the web
Documentation for the package is in the docs/ directory and is rendered at https://salishsea-nowcast.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.
