Spectral Wave Energy Period - Ann (mhk_atlas:wave_energy_period_ann)

units:sec, Wave Energy PeriodSource: The Wave Energy Resource Assessment project is a joint venture between NREL, EPRI, and Virginia Tech. EPRI is the prime contractor, Virginia Tech is responsible for development of the models and estimating the wave resource, and NREL serves as an independent validator and also develops the final GIS-based display of the data. Geographic RangeUS coastline, including AK, HI and Puerto Rico, out to 50 nautical milesGrid PropertiesGrids are derived from WaveWatch III grids. Near the coast of the lower 48 and HI, grids are squares, 4 minutes by 4 minutes (15 per degree).For the Alaska grids AK and BS, the grid is 4 minutes of latitude by 8 minutes of longitude (15 per deg by 7.5 per deg).EXCEPT: The area in the Bering Sea around the Pribilof (St Paul and St George) Islands is 10 min lat by 15 min lon. Limits: 55.666 to 58.000 N, -172.000 to - 168.000 E, 17 cols, 15 rowsFarther offshore, the grid is 10 min by 10 min. (only seen in WM and PR)The 10 min by 10 min grid appears near the edge of a few grids: - SW corner of WM (off Mexican coast) - SE corner of WM (deep water) - PR - around edges (far from PR and US territory)Depth Zonesshoreline_to_lt20m_depth 0m - 20mgte20m_depth_to_lt50m_depth 20m - 50mgte50m_depth_to_lt200m_depth 50m - 200mgte200m_depth_to_lt1000m_depth 200m - 1000mgte1000m_depth_to_50nmi_maplimit 1000m - 50 nmi
