This annual statistics at 500m horizontal resolution was produced from the archived time series of MARS 3D physics model hindcast runs along French Atlantic Coast. The variable that is available here is the Kinetic Energy induced by currents caused by tide, water density gradients and action of winds. The formula used for the Kinetic Energy calculation is 0.5mv², where m is the density of seawater (1027 kg.m-3) and v is the current-induced velocity. Values are expressed in N.m-2 (Newton per square meter). In each pixel the value is an average of the values of the 40 vertical levels that are considered in the model.

Base de donnée hydrodynamique réalisée avec le modèle MARS3D et la librairie AGRIF (V10.10) le long de la façade atlantique française à la résolution spatiale de 500m et à la fréquence horaire. La mise en place de zooms avec la librairie AGRIF (http://www-ljk.imag.fr/MOISE/AGRIF/) le long de la façade atlantique a permis d’augmenter la résolution à 500m et localement à 100m (Golfe du Morbihan). Un rejeu sur cinq ans a été produit avec l’ensemble des zooms pour établir des climatologies en zone côtière à haute résolution.Une simulation de six années allant de 2010 à 2015 a été réalisée pour l’ensemble des emprises couvrant la façade atlantique.
