Description

In fluid dynamics, the wave height of a surface wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest (point of maximum upward displacement) and a neighbouring trough (exact opposite, so the minimum or lowest point). Wave height is a term used by mariners, as well as in coastal, ocean and naval engineering.

MSP Challenge

Wave Height is a static data layer, providing useful information for planning different human activities, e.g. wind farms, or indeed wave farms.

Original Title

Atlantic- European North West Shelf- Ocean Physics Reanalysis

Description

The ocean physics reanalysis for the North-West European Shelf is produced using an ocean assimilation model, with tides, at 7 km horizontal resolution. It includes the following variables:

  • sea water potential temperature
  • sea water potential temperature at sea floor
  • sea water salinity
  • sea surface height above geoid
  • eastward_sea_water_velocity
  • northward_sea_water_velocity
  • ocean mixed layer thickness defined by sigma theta

Further details of the model, including the product validation are provided in the CMEMS-NWS-QUID-004-009.
