This website describes the coupling infrastructure and techniques used in the NOAA Environmental Modeling System (NEMS), which forms the back bone of the Unified Forecast System (UFS). NEMS coupling infrastructure is based on the Earth System Modeling Framework (ESMF) and National Unified Operational Prediction Capability (NUOPC) Layer code and conventions. The software is under active development, and is incorporating atmosphere, ocean, ice, wave and other models. The coupled system will be used for weather and longer range predictions.

Everything in this doxgen-generated webpage is created from files within the NEMS repository. That documentation is versioned with the code – every time the code is updated, we update the documentation to match. Further information outside this website can be found in links within the above paragraph.
