Wave height in the Greater North Sea and Celtic Seas (2000-2005) for the EMODnet Seabed Habitats project

GeoTiff datasets of significant wave height (hs) in Greater North Sea and Celtic Seas calculated for the period 2000-2005 with a raster cell size of 300m - Numbers in the Geotiff names refer to the percentiles, e.g hs100.tif is the maximum wave height or the 100th percentile and it includes all values, whilst hs90.tif contains the 90th percentile wave height values obtained when the highest 10% of values are excluded. Units are in meters. The layers are built using data from National Oceanograph
