Documentation in README

This folder contains results of a WAVEWATCH III hourly surface waves numerical modelling based on high resolution currents and water levels (1/48°) interpolated from MITgcm llc_4320 currents output, with high resolution ECMWF sea ice fields reanalysis and ECMWF 3 hourly surface winds reanalysis.

FILES DESCRIPTION  (WW3 outputs):
ww3.20111127_hs.nc: significant wave height map
ww3.20111127_cur.nc: surface current vector (forcing field)
ww3.20111127_mss.nc: mean square slope (integrated slope spectrum)
ww3.20111127_msd.nc: direction of dominant lean square slope
ww3.20111127_uss.nc: Stokes drift vector
ww3.20111127_wlv.nc: sea surface height
ww3.20111127_wnd.nc: 10-meters above the sea level wind vector
ww3.20111127_ice.nc : sea-surface area fraction covered in sea-ice
ww3.20111127_ice1.nc : effective sea-ice thickness [m]
ww3.20111127_ic5.nc : ice-flow diameter [m]
ww3.20111127_foc.nc : ocean to waves flux

more to come soon, on other grids, longer time range (1 year), etc ...
