    I     INTRODUCTION

    I.1    Summary

    This guide describes the data product files from the Arctic Monitoring and Forecasting Centre, what
    data services are available to access them, and how to use the files and services.
    ARCTIC_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_WAV_002_010 is the analysis and forecast products of the Arctic
    Monitoring and Forecast Center for ocean waves. The system delivers daily forecast of ocean wave
    data for 5 days ahead. Output from the system is hourly data of significant wave height, wave period
    and direction (for a list of the full set of parameters see Table 2 below).

    The ARCTIC_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_WAV_002_010 is a wave forecast system run at the
    Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET) and the core model is based on an upgraded version the
    European wave model WAM (see link for documentation under subsection 3.1.1: The Model). It runs

    once daily producing 5-days forecasts for an area covering the Nordic Seas and the Arctic Ocean. The
    model is forced by wave spectra from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts
    (ECMWF) at the lateral boundaries, with surface (10-metre) winds, also from ECMWF, at the surface
    and with ice concentration from EUMETSAT OSI SAF. The model implementation includes a data
    assimilation scheme for satellite altimeter data. This is currently not in use due to the lack of altimeter
    data north of 65 N. Plans for the next version is to include data assimilation once Sentile-3 altimeter
    data becomes available.

    Model Version      The wave model WAM solves the equations for the conservation of spectral wave
                       energy in the presence of dissipation, wind input and non-linear interaction between
                       spectral wave nodes. The original version was developed by a group of European
                       scientists in the 1980's and was the first third-generation wave model, which does
                       not parametrize the non-linear interaction, but computes this term by a numerical
                       approximation to the exact formulation. The current model version is an upgrade

                         the MFC. These consist observing techniques from wave riders to radar and sonar
                         technologies. These are used to produce analysis and forecast scores that are
                         issued in quarterly reports.

    IV FILES NOMENCLATURE AND FORMAT

    The nomenclature of the downloaded files differs on the basis of the chosen download mechanism
    Subsetter or Directgetfile or MFTP service.

    IV.1 Nomenclature of files when downloaded through the CMEMS Web Portal Subsetter
         Service

    Files nomenclature when downloaded through the CMEMS Web Portal Subsetter is based on product
    dataset name and a numerical reference related to the request number in the MIS-GW (MET-GW).
    The scheme is: datasetname_nnnnnn.nc
    where :
              datasetname is a character string with the following :
                          ●   dataset-mywave-arctic-be
              nnnnnn: 6 digit integer corresponding to the unique request number in the MET-GW.
              .nc: standard NetCDF filename extension.
              Example:
              dataset-mywave-arctic -be_435283.nc

    IV.2 Nomenclature of files when downloaded through the CMEMS Web Portal
         DirectGetFile or CMEMS FTP Service

    Files nomenclature when downloaded through the CMEMS Web Portal DirectGetFile is based on
    product dataset name and a numerical reference related to the request number in the MIS-GW (MET-
    GW).
    The scheme is: datasetname_nnnnnn.zip
    where :
              datasetname is a character string with the following :
              •       dataset-mywave-arctic-be
              nnnnnn: 6 digit integer corresponding to the unique request number in the MET-GW.
              .zip: standard ZIP filename extension.
              Example:
              dataset-mywave-arctic -be_435284.zip
    The downloaded ZIP file will contain files named in the following scheme:
    [VDATE]_MyWaveWam8_b[BDATE].nc
    where
    [BDATE]: YYYYMMDD is the bulletin date
    [VDATE]: YYYYMMDD is the forecast valid date
    When downloading through the CMEMS MFTP service, users may select files individually, where
    filenames are [VDATE]_MyWaveWam8_b[BDATE].nc as described above.

    Example: 20170108_MyWaveWam8_b20170104.nc is the file containing the
        hourly values for 2017-01-08 00:00-23:00 UTC, coming from the bulletin of
        2017-01-04.IV.3 . File Format : NetCDF

    The products are stored using the NetCDF format.
    NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is an interface for array-oriented data access and a library that
    provides an implementation of the interface. The netCDF library also defines a machine-independent
    format for representing scientific data. Together, the interface, library, and format support the creation,
    access, and sharing of scientific data. The netCDF software was developed at the Unidata Program
    Center in Boulder, Colorado. The netCDF libraries define a machine-independent format for
    representing scientific data.
    Please see Unidata netCDF pages (http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/) for more
    information, and to retrieve netCDF software package.

    NetCDF data format is:
      * Self-Describing. A netCDF file includes information about the data it contains.
      * Architecture-independent. A netCDF file is represented in a form that can be accessed by
    computers with different ways of storing integers, characters, and floating-point numbers.
       * Direct-access. A small subset of a large dataset may be accessed efficiently, without first reading
    through all the preceding data.
      * Appendable. Data can be appended to a netCDF dataset along one dimension without copying
    the dataset or redefining its structure. The structure of a netCDF dataset can be changed, though this
    sometimes causes the dataset to be copied.
      * Sharable. One writer and multiple readers may simultaneously access the same netCDF file.
    The products are compliant with the NetCDF Climate and Forecast Convention CF-1.4 (see http://cf-
    pcmdi.llnl.gov/).

    Fill values / missing values: -999.f, for all variables. This value is also used where there is land or ice
    cover.
    An extra ice mask variable ICE_MASK is available to make it possible to identify the ice coverage, it
    contains the value 0.f for open water, 1.f for ice covered water or -999.f (“Fillvalue”) for land cover.

    IV.6 Reading Software

    NetCDF data can be browsed and used through a number of software packages, including:

        ✓ ncBrowse: http://www.epic.noaa.gov/java/ncBrowse/,
        ✓ NetCDF Operator (NCO): http://nco.sourceforge.net/
        ✓ IDL, Matlab, Panoply, GMT…
