Arctic Ocean Wave Analysis and Forecast

'''Short description:'''

The Arctic Ocean Wave Analysis and Forecast system uses the WAM model at 3 km resolution forced with surface winds and boundary wave spectra from the ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) together with tidal currents and ice from the ARC MFC forecasts (Sea Ice concentration and thickness). WAM runs twice daily providing one hourly 10 days forecast and one hourly 5 days forecast. From the output variables the most commonly used are significant wave height, peak period and mean direction.
