Global Ocean Waves Reanalysis
'''Short description:'''
GLOBAL_MULTIYEAR_WAV_001_032 for the global wave reanalysis describing past sea states since years 1980. This product also bears the name of WAVERYS within the GLO-HR MFC for correspondence to other global multi-year products like GLORYS. BIORYS. etc. The core of WAVERYS is based on the MFWAM model. a third generation wave model that calculates the wave spectrum. i.e. the distribution of sea state energy in frequency and direction on a 1/5° irregular grid. Average wave quantities derived from this wave spectrum such as the SWH (significant wave height) or the average wave period are delivered on a regular 1/5° grid with a 3h time step. The wave spectrum is discretized into 30 frequencies obtained from a geometric sequence of first member 0.035 Hz and a reason 7.5. WAVERYS takes into account oceanic currents from the GLORYS12 physical ocean reanalysis and assimilates SWH observed from historical altimetry missions and directional wave spectra from Sentinel 1 SAR from 2017 onwards.
