Description
Summary:The RESOURCECODE wave database was developed at Ifremer by the Laboratory of Ocean Physics and Satellite remote sensing (LOPS by its acronym in French). The generated hindcast was also primarily validated at Ifremer by LOPS and the Marine Structures Laboratory (LCSM by its acronym in French), and further analyzed at the Laboratory of Hydrodynamics, Energy and Atmospheric Environment at Ecole Centrale Nantes. This high-resolution regional hindcast includes the evolution in time (hourly) and space of the directional spectrum and several integrated wave parameters, which allow to have a detailed description of the sea states. The modelled area extends from 12°W to 13.5°E longitude, and from 36°N to 63°N latitude, hence, the European and UK's North Atlantic coast, Irish sea, the Northern Sea, and La Manche are included within the domain. On its first version (March 2021), this data-set covers 27 years from 1994 to 2020. The primary aim of the RESOURCECODE project is the creation of a marine data toolbox to ...
