Atlantic- European North West Shelf- Wave Physics Reanalysis

'''Short description:'''



This product provides long term hindcast outputs from a wave model for the North-West European Shelf. The wave model is WAVEWATCH III and the North-West Shelf configuration is based on a two-tier Spherical Multiple Cell grid mesh (3 and 1.5 km cells) derived from with the 1.5km grid used for [ https://resources.marine.copernicus.eu/?option=com_csw&view=details&product_id=NORTHWESTSHELF_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_PHY_004_013 NORTHWESTSHELF_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_PHY_004_013]. The model is forced by lateral boundary conditions from a Met Office Global wave hindcast. The atmospheric forcing is given by the [https://www.ecmwf.int/en/forecasts/datasets/reanalysis-datasets/era5 ECMWF ERA-5] Numerical Weather Prediction reanalysis. Model outputs comprise wave parameters integrated from the two-dimensional (frequency, direction) wave spectrum and describe wave height, period and directional characteristics for both the overall sea-state and wind-sea and swell components. The data are delivered on a regular grid at approximately 1.5km resolution, consistent with physical ocean and wave analysis-forecast products. See [ http://catalogue.marine.copernicus.eu/documents/PUM/CMEMS-NWS-PUM-004-015.pdf CMEMS-NWS-PUM-004-015] for more information. Further details of the model, including source term physics, propagation schemes, forcing and boundary conditions, and validation, are provided in the [http://catalogue.marine.copernicus.eu/documents/QUID/CMEMS-NWS-QUID-004-015.pdf CMEMS-NWS-QUID-004-0 15].

The product is updated biannually provinding six-month extension of the time series.
