The Southern California Coastal Ocean Observing System (SCCOOS) is a consortium of eleven Southern California universities
and laboratories that surround the Southern California Bight (SCB). SCCOOS aims to develop and coordinate individual
institutional efforts to create an integrated, multidisciplinary coastal observatory in the SCB.
The remote sensing and ocean modeling components of the SCCOOS will be carried out at JPL and reviewed in this poster. In
addition to the standard satellite data products (including ocean color, scatterometry, altimetry, and SAR-derived winds), we plan to develop a number of value-added products derived from satellite observations as well as assimilated models. The
Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) with ability to assimilate both in situ and satellite observations will be implemented
in real-time over the Southern California coastal oceans. Both the satellite and model-based products will be delivered
through standard web-based tools such as the Geographic Information Systems mapping tools.
