Atlantic -Iberian Biscay Irish- Ocean Wave Reanalysis

'''Short description:'''

The IBI-MFC provides a high-resolution wave reanalysis multi-year product for the Iberia-Biscay-Ireland (IBI) region starting in 01/01/1980, extended on yearly basis by using available reprocessed upstream data and regularly updated on monthly basis to cover the period up to month M-4 from present time using an interim processing system. The model system is designed and implemented by Météo-France and NOW Systems - the latter is in charge for the operational product post-processing and interim system run, with the support of CESGA supercomputing centre.
The multi-year model configuration is based on the MFWAM model developed by Météo-France, covering the same region as the IBI near real time (NRT) analysis and forecasting product, at the same horizontal resolution of 1/36º. The system assimilates significant wave height altimeter data and wave spectral data (Envisat and CFOSAT). The MY system is forced by the ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis wind data and nested into the Global Ocean Wave Reanalysis product. The catalogue includes hourly instantaneous fields of different wave parameters, including air-sea fluxes. Additionally, climatological parameters of significant wave height and zero -crossing wave period are delivered for the reference time interval 1993-2016.
