Description
Summary:The project contributes to deeper understanding of physical processes in Arctic offshore and coastal zones and in determining physical environmental actions on structures and ships. Special focus of the project is on the regions of current and potential industrial development in Svalbard and North-West Barents Sea. Tidal sea level amplitudes and phases, and maximum velocity at the Spitsbergen Bank, Barents Sea are given for the four major constituents: M2, N2, K1, and O1. The computational domain spans 10 deg E to 30 deg E and 72.5 deg N to 77.5 deg N. The data resolution is .25 min along S-N and 1 min along E-W; thus, the space step is close to 460 meters. The above resolution sets 1200 computational grid points along both directions. The instructions for data extraction and a detailed description of the data are given in README file.
