coastDat-2 TRIM-NP-2d-Baltic_Sea

Project: coastDat-2 - CoastDat-2 (http://www.coastdat.de/about_us/index.php) comprises a compilation of coastal analyses (that is hindcasts and reconstructions) and scenarios for the future obtained from numerical models. The atmospheric part of the dataset is simulatated using the COSMO-CLM (http://www.clm-community.eu). The objective is to provide a consistent meteo-marine data set. Summary: This is a hydrodynamic hindcast for the Baltic Sea over the period 1958-2011. The simulation has been performed with the hydrodynamic model TRIM-NP V2.1 in barotropic 2D mode. Water level and current component fields are stored hourly. The model is set up on an equidistant Cartesian grid cascade with the center near Helgoland (7.88 E, 54.18 N) for the coarsest grid (12.8km resolution) (http://dx.doi.org/doi:10.1594/WDCC/coastDat-2_TRIM-NP-2d). Further model results from three nested grids (6.4km,3.2km, 1.6km resolution) for the Baltic Sea are hourly available for the period 1958-2011.
