Experimental wave forecast to support R/V Mirai Arctic Ocean expedition in 2021

This is a experimental TodaiWW3-ArCS wave forecast data set to support R/V Mirai Arctic Ocean expedition. The model is forced with the ECMWF forecast 10m wind field while the lateral boundary is imposed from Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) sea ice concentration and thickness fields. The model is experimental and has not been tuned. The primary purpose of proviing the wave forecast is to support onboard decision making processes relating to wave measurement activities. The R/V Mirai forecast domain has 8 km resolution and covers the expedition scheduled track. This domain is nested within the pan-Arctic Ocean domain with 16 km resolution.The simulation is automated on the Google Cloud Computing platform, which was configured by T. Terui of ADS NIPR.本数据集为实验性TodaiWW3-ArCS海浪预报数据集，旨在支撑R/V Mirai号北冰洋科考航次。该数值模式以欧洲中期天气预报中心（European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, ECMWF）的10米风场作为强迫场，侧向边界条件采用加拿大环境与气候变化部（Environment and Climate Change Canada, ECCC）的海冰浓度与厚度场数据。本模式为实验版本，尚未经过参数调优。提供该海浪预报数据的核心目的，是为航次现场与海浪测量活动相关的决策流程提供支撑。R/V Mirai号的预报区域分辨率为8公里，覆盖本次科考航次的预定航线；该区域嵌套于分辨率为16公里的泛北冰洋预报域中。本次模拟在谷歌云计算平台（Google Cloud Computing platform）上自动化运行，该平台由日本国立极地研究所（National Institute of Polar Research, NIPR）ADS的T. Terui完成配置。
