Project: coastDat - CoastDat (http://www.coastdat.de/about_us/index.php) comprises a compilation of coastal analyses obtained from the combination of statistical and numerical models by Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht Centre for Materials and Costal Research, Institute of Coastal Research. This project provides regional atmospheric and environmental marine data. The focus is on North Sea and Baltic Sea. Summary: This is an atmospheric hourly hindcast for the German Bight using COSMO-CLM version 5.00_clm2 from 1948-August 2015. The model uses a rotated grid with 250 x 180 grid points and a grid point distance of 0.025 degrees, the rotated North pole is located at 172.97 W, 34.925 N. The forcing is coastDat2 doi:10.1594/WDCC/coastDat-2_COSMO-CLM . In rotated coordinates the model area extends from 2.25 W to 2.25 E, 3.125 S to 3.125 N, in geographical coordinates this corresponds to about 1.3 E to 12.8 E, 52.7 N to 57.3 N.
