The University of Southern Mississippi has developed the coastal CUBEnet environment. Coastal CUBEnet is a high-resolution, coastal ocean sensor, modeling, and data sharing web-based network that provides the environmental intelligence needed to support the complex modeling of the interlinked processes in the northern Gulf of Mexico. With near-real time data delivery via a common infrastructure, CUBEnet uses state of the art s...

While study of ocean dynamics usually involves modeling deep ocean variables, monitoring and accurate forecasting of nearshore environments is also critical. However, sensor observations often contain artifacts like long stretches of missing data and noise, typically after an extreme event occurrence or some accidental damage to the sensors. Such data artifacts, if not handled diligently prior to modeling, can significantly im...
