DHI GWM 2024

Title Global, Waves, MIKE 21 Spectral Wave Model (SW), ERA5, DHI (DHI GWM 2024)
Geographical coverage Global
Category Waves
Source name MIKE 21 Spectral Wave Model (SW)
Publisher DHI
Data product
description
The DHI global wave model dataset (GWM) is generated by DHI's 3rd generation MIKE 21 Spectral Wave Model based on the high accuracy global ERA5 wind dataset from ECMWF. The ERA5 wind dataset is an exceptionally good basis for global (and regional) wave modelling, and Wind Speeds > 12 m/s have been corrected for a better representation of wave modelling. The model includes island parameterisation and data assimilation of satellite altimeter data. The results have been calibrated and validated against offshore buoys and satellite data.
