Since its formation in 1977, Oceanweather has been fully
engaged with support divided between the private and public
sector. In the public sector, the company performs
basic and applied research in marine meteorology and ocean
response numerical modeling, supported by both U.S. and foreign
government agencies. Oceanweather staff continues to actively
participate in international
scientific conferences and research programs, and in open
publication.
Oceanweather
functions as a specialized consulting firm serving the coastal
and ocean engineering communities with its unique capacity
to integrate several areas of expertise into specification
of definitive design data on the physical environment. Oceanweather's
approach is to consistently develop and apply high-level
technology to satisfy practical requirements in the areas
of marine meteorology, ocean wave and current specification,
ocean engineering, and statistics of environmental data.
In its
long history, Oceanweather has performed dedicated hindcast
studies and Joint Industry Projects (JIPs) in virtually
every ocean basin in the world. Oceanweather offers an extensive selection
of pre-computed hindcasts for fast-turnaround applications
as well as the expertise to run dedicated hindcast studies
for specific applications.
Since
1983, Oceanweather has operated a real-time forecasting
division. The methodology follows a unique approach of optimally combining
traditional weather forecasting (which retains
the contributions of individual forecasters) and Oceanweather's
high-level technology developed and applied
in its hindcasting and consulting divisions. The forecast
system includes a global wind and wave forecast system and
high resolution regional applications.
