The major data variables which make up this file are: beginning of record flag, time information, ocean basin, grid point, sub-projection, wind direction, friction velocity, white caps, wind speed, array position, and wave energy. The data in this file were originally created by the U.S. Navy Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center. The Spectral Ocean Wave Model used at FNOC generates an array of wave frequencies versus directions for each model grid point. Two related files are DSI-9782 (C00064) and DSI-9783 (C00092) which is the same as this file except for the projection starting point and spectral frequency bandwidth and directional resolution. The global spectral wave model (GSOWM) is based on a 2.5 by 2.5 degree latitude/longitude grid beginning at 90 (deg N) and 60 (deg E). This model removes artificial boundaries that were in the other SOWM models. Each grid point contains spectra for 15 frequencies and 24 directions (FORTRAN notation array (15, 24)). Frequencies in order I = 1, 15 are .30834, .20834, .15833, .13333, .11667, .10278, .09167, .08056, .07222, .06667, .06111, .05556, .050, .04444, .03889. Initial direction is 7.5 degrees then clockwise in 15 degree increments. Logical records are blocked into variable length physical records containing no more than 2000 60 bit words. The Global Spectral Wave Model replaced the Northern Hemisphere Spectral Wave Ocean Model (SOWM) on June 23, 1985. After this date only the GSOWM data will be archived. This dataset is stored on DSI-9782 and DSI-9797. To make a wide range of climatic data available to researchers and the public. completed DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce Customer Engagement Branch 1-828-271-4800 1-828-271-4876 151 Patton Avenue Veach-Baley Federal Building, Room 468 Asheville NC 28801-5001 USA ncei.orders@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov HTTPS Web Browser NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) NCEI home page with information, data access and contact information. information 8:00 - 6:00 Eastern pointOfContact asNeeded Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Winds > Surface Winds Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Circulation > Wind-Driven Circulation Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Wave Height Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Wave Speed/Direction Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Winds > Surface Winds Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Wind Waves Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Sea State Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Bathymetry theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2018 revision Version 8.6 Global Change Data Center, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/gcmd/global-change-master-directory-gcmd-keywords HTTPS Web Browser Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.
