Description:

Abstract:

This dataset presents historical (1979-2014) and projected (2020-2050) hourly time-series of wave heights, wave periods, incident wave directions, and directional spreading at distinct points surrounding Hawai’i and U.S. territories in the Pacific Ocean. The time-series were developed by running the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) WAVEWATCHIII model. Wind and sea ice fields from seven different Global Climate or General Circulation Models from the CMIP6 High-Resolution Model Intercomparison Project were used to simulate waves across the globe at a 0.5-degree resolution (approximately 50 kms, depending on latitude) and further downscaled to 10- (approximately 18 kilometer) and 4-arc-minute (approximately 7 kilometer) model grids. Point model output data extracted from NOAA’s 10-arc-minute grid for Hawai’i and U.S. territories in the Pacific Ocean (ep_10m) are provided herein.

Purpose:

These wave data were produced as part of a larger investigation into assessing future coastal hazards along the United States open coastlines.

Supplemental_Information:

Coupled atmosphere-ocean global climate models (or general circulation models, GCMs) are the current standard tool for improving understanding and predictability of climate behavior on seasonal to centennial time-scales. However, GCMs do not currently include ocean wave conditions caused by the exchange of momentum, heat, and mass across the air-sea interface (Hemer and others, 2012). To fulfill this need, projections of wave conditions have been done by independent researchers using statistical and numerical modeling methods driven by atmospheric forcing derived from the 5th generation Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) GCMs (Morim and others, 2019, 2020). This work follows a well-established method of applying GCM-derived wind and sea-ice fields as boundary conditions to the WaveWatchIII model to generate projections of wave climatologies (Hemer and others 2013; Erikson and others, 2015; Mentaschi and others 2017). But in contrast to earlier works, this data set was produced by applying wind and sea-ice fields from the High Resolution Model Intercomparison Project (HighResMIP v1.0), which is part of the CMIP6 framework (Haarsma and others, 2016). With a spatial resolution up to 25-50 km (compared to 150 km for CMIP5), the HighResMIP models are capable of resolving localized climate extremes, such as tropical cyclones (Roberts and others., 2020). Additional information about WAVEWATCHIII and the Production Multigrid model from which these data were derived is available online at https://polar.ncep.noaa.gov/waves/validation/.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

This study does not include model hindcast runs and comparisons to buoy or altimeter observations, but comparisons to various measurements have been done by previous studies (for example, https://polar.ncep.noaa.gov/waves/validation/prod/).

Logical_Consistency_Report:

The data provided matches the wave source information and falls within the expected ranges for wave parameters.

Completeness_Report:

Spatial and attribute properties are believed to be complete. The geospatial data were checked for integrity. Possible data duplicates have been checked and eliminated.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

The horizontal accuracy is inherited from the source model grid (NOAA’s WAVEWATCHIII model). Because the overall horizontal accuracy depends on the underlying bathymetry, forcing values used, and the accuracy of the model, the spatial accuracy of this data layer cannot be meaningfully quantified.

The near-surface wind fields and sea-ice cover were downloaded from ESGF CMIP6 Data Holdings (pcmdi.llnl.gov/CMIP6) in March 2021 (June 2021 for CMCC), and they were interpolated to common 3-hourly time-points and grid resolutions of 0.5 degrees for GFDL and CNRM, 0.35 degrees for Hadgem and ECEARTH, and 0.3125 degrees for CMCC. All data were written to netCDF format files ingestible by the wave model. The GCM wind and ice fields are part of the High-Resolution Model Intercomparison Project (HighResMIP, Haarsma and others, 2016). The primary goal of HighResMIP is to assess the robustness of improvements in the representation of important climate processes with weather-resolving global model resolutions, using the physical climate system only with constrained aerosol forcing (Eyring and others, 2016). The higher resolution and inclusion of more forcings and detailed physics is expected to reduce bias compared to the standard CMIP6 and CMIP5 predecessor.

Process_Description:

Wave model setup. The third-generation, spectral wave model WAVEWATCHIII (WW3; version 6.07.1; WAVEWATCHIII® Development Group (WW3DG), 2019) was downloaded from GitHub at https://github.com/NOAA-EMC/WW3/releases). WW3 is a ‘phase-averaged model’ that solves the random phase spectral action density balance equation for wavenumber-direction spectra based on the assumption that water depths, currents, and wave ﬁelds vary on time and spatial scales much larger than that of a single wave. This version of the model includes transitional- and shallow-water equations. Source terms for physical processes include parameterizations for wind-driven wave growth, parametrized forms for nonlinear resonant wave-wave interactions, scattering due to wave-bottom interactions, triad interactions, and dissipation due to whitecapping, bottom friction, surf-breaking, and interactions with ice. Model switches used in this study were as follows (see WW3DG, 2019 for further explanations): F90 DIST MPI OMPG OMPH PR3 UQ FLX0 LN1 ST4 STAB0 NL1 BT1 IC4 IS0 REF0 DB0 TR1 MLIM BS0 XX0 WNT1 WNX1 CRT1 CRX1 NOGRB O0 O1 O2 O3 O4 O5 O6 O7 O11 NC4. Model grids consist of one 0.5 x 0.5 degree global grid, 4 nested 10 arc-minute resolution (approximately 18 km) ‘child’ grids, and 3 nested 4 arc-minute resolution (approximately 7 km) ‘grand-child’ grids (grid, geographic coverage, resolution in arc-minutes and approximate km). The finer resolution nested grids each take inputs along their open boundaries from the increasingly coarse grids. The finest resolution wave grids (approximately 7 km) align the outer coast of Alaska, including the Aleutian Islands, and the U.S. East and West coasts, including the Gulf of Mexico, Hawai’i, and Puerto Rico. U.S. territories in the Pacific Ocean are represented by a 10 arc-minute (approximately 18 km) grid. Please see the overview image provided as part of this data release for a visual representation of the spatial grid coverage. Bathymetry and landmasks for all grids were obtained from the 1-arc-minute ETOPO1 global relief model (Amante and Eakins, 2009). In an effort to optimize model output data storage needs, more than 5000 model output points (‘savepoints’) were placed along the approximate 20m, 50m, and 100m isobaths (as derived from the ETOPO1 bathymetry), spaced approximately 10 km in the alongshore direction of all U.S. coastlines or co-located with buoys or other points of interest. Output point locations were snapped to grid points and thus are not necessarily precisely coincident with long-term buoy observation locations.

Process_Description:

Wave model implementation and post-processing. The WW3 model was compiled and run on two separate high-performance computing systems: the USGS Advanced Research Computing Facility, USGS Denali Supercomputer https://doi.org/10.5066/P9PSW367 and Intel Corporation for part of the projection GCMs. Computing efficiency was optimized resulting in approximately 80 hours of computation (wall-clock) time per 10-year simulation. The WW3 model was run with the spatiotemporally varying wind and ice fields, described in the first process step, applied across all model domains. Each year was run individually, with restart files from the previous year. Data from the years 1979 and 2020 are cold-start runs and hence model ‘spin-up’ is included in the approximate first week of data outputs for that year; users are cautioned on using the first weeks of data in years 1979 and 2020. Hourly time-series of bulk wave statistics were saved at each global model grid point (0.5-degree resolution) and coastal ‘savepoint’ from the nested grids (see second process_step) in the form of binary files. A post-processor script included with the WAVEWATCHIII® 6.07.01 release was used to write out select bulk parameters from the binary data files to netCDF format. The annual data files were subsequently re-written to produce netCDF files with continuous time-series spanning all years from 2020 through 2050; model depths at each of the savepoint locations were extracted from the grids and added to the final netCDF files. The data are presented for U.S. coastlines within nested model domains (grids) which correspond to the U.S. West Coast and Hawai’i (wc_4m), East Coast and Gulf of Mexico and Puerto Rico (at_4m), Alaska (ak_4m), and U.S. territories in the Pacific Ocean (ep_10m). This dataset is for the coast of Alaska.

Process_Description:

Wave time-series for the hindcast period were added to the existing data release of wave time-series for the projected period. Corrections were made to the metadata to fix the erroneous version description of EC-Earth projections (EC-Earth3P-HR_highres-future_r1i1p1f1_gr for wind was changed to EC-Earth3P-HR_highres-future_r1i1p2f1_gr, and EC-Earth3P-HR_highres-future_r1i1p2f1_gr was changed to and EC-Earth3P-HR_highres-future_r1i1p2f1_gn). In the previously released data files for the projection period, the global attribute description was also corrected to EC-Earth3P-HR_highres-future_r1i1p2f1_gn. Additionally, erroneous non-zero wave data in the data files for the projection period in the Arctic regions, at times when the Arctic Ocean is usually ice-covered during these times and waves in this region are not expected, were fixed. Erroneous variable datatypes were corrected.

Resource_Description:

The dataset consists of 14 netCDF files, seven of which contain hourly wave parameters for the years 1979 through 2014 and seven of which contain hourly wave projections for the years 2020 through 2050 at 74 output points extracted from the 10-minute nested “East Pacific 10 min” grid (ep_10m; see https://polar.ncep.noaa.gov/waves/validation/). Wave parameters provided are as follows: significant wave heights (swell and seas combined), mean and peak wave periods, and mean and peak wave directions and associated spread. The motivation for providing high temporal resolution values of these variables is driven by the notion that storm impacts on coastal processes, including wave runup and erosion, are often investigated with these parameters. Each netCDF file represents results from model runs using wind forcing and sea ice boundary conditions from one Global Climate Model / General Circulation Model (GCM). Filenames follow the format: WavePnts_<GCM>_<grid>_<period>.nc where <GCM> is the abbreviated name of one of the GCMs listed above, <grid> refers to the NOAA-named model grid from which data were extracted. The common field ‘WavePnts’ is meant to indicate wave time-series at select model output points (as opposed to gridded data). <period> refers to the time-period for which data is provided where ‘His’ represents the historical time-period (1979 through 2014) and ‘Fut’ represents the projected time-period (2020 through 2050).
