coastDat-3 WAM wave hindcast for the period 1948 - 2021 covering the North and Baltic Sea with COSMO-CLM-NCEP1 atmospheric forcing

Project: coastDat-3 - CoastDat-3 (https://www.coastdat.de/about_us/) comprises a compilation of consistent hindcasts obtained from numerical models. The atmospheric part of the dataset is simulated by using the COSMO in CLimate Mode version 5 (http://www.clm-community.eu) with different boundary conditions. The objective is to provide a consistent meteo-marine data set.
Summary: This is a wave hindcast for the period 1948 - 2021 covering the North and Baltic Sea. The simulation has been performed with the spectral wave model WAM Version 4.6.2. The model domain covers the area from approx 49.2° N to 66.6° N and 9.8° W to 31.6° E, with a spatial resolution of 0.044 degree latitude x 0.044 degree longitude (approx. 5 by 5 km) on a rotated grid with the coordinates of the rotated north pole 140°W E and 32° N.
Integrated parameter derived from 2D spectra are available every hour. Atmospheric forcing was obtained from the coastDat3 COSMO-CLM-NCEP1 regional atmospheric hindcast. Lateral boundary conditions were obtained from corresponding coarse grid hindcast covering most of the Northeast Atlantic driven by the same atmospheric forcing.
