More information
- Data source: The wind hindcast dataset is taken from NCEP globally, but different wave models are used to produce the global wave dataset. The main oceans use the wave dataset from NOAA’s high resolution WAVEWATCH III. For other areas, the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, the Arabian Gulf, the Caspian Sea, the Baltic Sea and the Red Sea, Fugro’s own global WAVEWATCH III model is used.
- Grid points represent locations where 10 years of model data are available.
- Grid resolution is 0.5˚.
- The grid point location nearest to the site of interest should be selected.
