Remote internal wave forcing of regional ocean simulations near the U.S. West Coast

This dataset contains data from ROMS simulations near the U.S. West Coast with realistic atmospheric forcing, tidal forcing and remote internal wave forcing. FS800b has remote internal wave forcing while FS800a does not have remote internal wave forcing at the open boundaries. The ROMS simulations have 4-km horizontal resolution and 60 sigma-layers. All data is along the local x- and y- axis of the rotated C-grid. Data is stored in netcdf format. We also include the altimeter dataset (see Buijsman et al., 2020; doi: 10.1016/j.ocemod.2020.101656) used in validating the semidiurnal internal tides.
