Transmission of Products
 
 

 

Each day the global wave model is run first, followed as soon as possible by the Mediterranean model. Products are prepared separately from each model, and are transmitted as one file per timestep per model. The dissemination filename convention used for wave data is described in the Section 12.

 

Availability of Global Wave Model data is shown in the table below. Forecast time steps not listed in the table are disseminated at regular intervals between the times shown.

If operations are running late, files are transmitted as produced. Operational production of the Centre's medium range forecast has higher priority than the Wave project, thus, if there should be a severe outage, it may be necessary to omit the Wave project forecasts in order to ensure delivery of the subsequent medium-range products.

 

Default transmission priority for the global wave model products is 30. Corresponding transmission priority value for the European Model data is 60.
