Ocean wave hindcast, using the WaveWatch III v4.08 wave model forced with NCEP CFSv2 hourly winds and daily sea ice, January 2011 - May 2013. \n\nThe dataset contains spectral wave output at 3683 points, as well as gridded outputs on a global 0.4 degree (24 arcminute) grid, with nested Australian and western Pacific subgrids of 10 and 4 arcminutes resolution. For further information, see Durrant et al (in prep)**. \nSee DAP entry http://dx.doi.org/10.4225/08/523168703DCC5 for 1979-2010 data.\n\nPlease note that the licensee/user is required to acknowledge the source of this data on the following terms: 'Source: Bureau of Meteorology and CSIRO © 2013'.

Please contact us for more information.\nLineage: The hindcast was performed using the WAVEWATCH III(TM) model version 4.08. The model was run on a 0.4 x 0.4° global grid with a series of nested grids of 10 arcminutes (~18km) down to 4 arcminutes (~7km) in the Western Pacific and Australian regions. Wave spectra were discretised over 29 frequencies exponentially spaced from 0.038 Hz to 0.5 Hz and 24 directions with a constant 15° directional resolution. All grids were forced with Climate Forecast System Reanalysis v.2 (CFSv2) surface winds at 0.2° spatial and hourly temporal resolution. Hourly sea ice concentrations from the CFSv2 data set were also used to define the ice edge. \nData output in NetCDF4 format.\n\nCAWCR Wave Hindcast pre-June 2013 ERRATA\nIssued 21/09/2020.\nWave data pre-June 2013 was created with an early release of WAVEWATCHIII (v4.08).\nNote that pre-June 2013 variable 't' should not be used.\nPre-June 2013, Variable ‘t’, named mean wave period using the first spectral moment is a duplicate of variable ‘tm0m1’ mean wave period using the first inverse spectral moment.\nPost-June 2013 (inclusive), Variables ‘t01’ represent mean wave period using the first ...
