Pier 7 ½, Staten Island, NY www.millerslaunch.com
Rosemary Miller - 95 ft Sorensen Miller - 110
ft 39N, 73 W is 70 nm from shore -
vessels have 100 nm certificates. Duration 30
hours. Cruise speed - 18 knots. Staten Island to
39N, 73W - about 110 nm trip each way. 6
hours out, 6 hours back. 275/hour standard
rate (up to 15 variable fuel surcharge). About
3,500 per round trip

Rutgers Shore Support Plans (marine.rutgers.edu/co
ol)
Real-time data products posted to WWW as
available. Satellite Imagery dozen passes
per day. CODAR surface current maps hourly.
Glider CTD sections every 6 hours. WRF
atmospheric forecast posted each morning. ROMS
ocean forecast posted daily. Operations Center
occupied during normal working hours and upon
request to produce environmental
summaries. Daily environmental summary via WHOI
SW06 Logistics Display. Formats needs
discussed here and tested during
LaTTE. Emergency availability via blackberry in
off hours.

model (Regional Ocean Modeling System)
http//marine.rutgers.edu/roms

• Operational model configuration
• Resolution
• 1 km horizontal resolution 30 vertical
  s-levels
• Forcing
• Forecast u10 winds, Tair , qair , Pair and
  downward radiation from NCEP NAM 3-hourly
  and/or local WRF hourly
• Boundary tides from ADCIRC, tuned by
  assimilation of local tidal harmonic data
• Open boundary conditions from climatology,
  analysis (climobs), HOPS, regional NCOM/NCODA.
• Output
• Model generates 48- to 60-hour forecast
• All scripted and run as daily cron job
• Output graphics to ships and OPeNDAP server
  http//queequeg.marine.rutgers.edu9876/thredds/
• Adjoint sensitivity analysis of forecasts for to
  direct adaptive sampling
