Summary

Hourly 2D wave spectra and instantaneous wave field from WINDSURFER/NORA3 (3 km grid) hindcast are extracted using the OPeNDAP framework.

Content

The repository contains:

  • The function windsurfer.m which gets the metocean conditions for a specific time and location
  • The function get2DSS.m, which gets the directional wave spectra
  • The file world.mat, which contains the coordinates of coastlines. This file is used for visualization purpose only.
  • The Matlab livescript Documentation_gridded_data.mlx, which illustrates the use of windsurfer.m.
  • The Matlab livescript Documentation_wave_spectra.mlx, which illustrates the use of get2DSS.m

The repository is unlikely bug-free, so if you have any question or comment, please ask!
