Field notes
For its observed baseline, the model compares the previous complete Pacific day’s UC Davis water level with NOAA’s tide prediction. An hour counts only if it has at least nine readings, and at least 90% of the day’s hours must qualify. Forecast inputs come from archived ECMWF and NOAA CFSv2 runs; the page also links to a model sensitivity study and downloadable study data.
