Comment:
The files are NetCDF, with each files being self-describing (including grid definition and result information along with units used, mean of items etc). The NetCDF structure used is also GIS compatible using ESRI ArcGIS CF-1.0 structure.
The file name also indicates its contents. Key components of the file namre are:
ubed = horiz velocity at the bed
uWSL = horiz velocity at the still water level
Ed = wave energy density
Ef = wave energy flux
Hs = significant wave height
Tp = peak wave period
mean or XX, where XX is the percentile at which this item is not exceeded (e.g., 90 would be for 90% of this item at or less than state amount in this file).
_P for present sea level
_S1 for 1 m sea level rise
(if neither are present in file name, then it is for present sea level).
ALL is all months included in the statistical calculation
WET is wet season months included in the statistical calculation
DRY is dry season months included in the statistical calculation
