SW Europe Currents - E.U. Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service
| Provider: | Generated using E.U. Copernicus Marine Service Information (CMEMS) |
| Model scope: | Southwest Europe |
| Update frequency: | every 24 hours |
| Resolution: | 1.7nm, 3.1km |
| Model duration: | 132 forecasts starting at 12 hrs, ending at 9 days 21 hrs |
| Parameters: | current, water temperature |
| GRIB model date: | Mon Jan 20 00:00:00 2025 UTC |

| Download delay: | 15hr 17min |
Note: the Download delay is the amount of time required for the GRIB model to compute its forecast and then for the LuckGrib cluster to download the data and make it available. The LuckGrib delay is generally less than 10 minutes, the remainder of the delay is the model compute time.
Description
The SW Europe current model is a high resolution model providing hourly forecast data covering the portions of west and southwest europe. The Copernicus site refers to this model as: Atlantic - Iberian Biscay Irish.
This data is generated using E.U. Copernicus Marine Service Information.
The data is made available through the Copernicus service, in NetCDF format, and is converted into GRIB-2 data by LuckGrib.
The IBI-MFC provides a high-resolution ocean analysis and forecast product (daily run by Nologin with the support of CESGA in terms of supercomputing resources), covering the European waters, and more specifically the Iberia–Biscay–Ireland (IBI) area. The last 2 years before now (historic best estimates) as well as forecasts of different temporal resolutions with a horizon of 10 days (updated on a daily basis) are available on the catalogue. The system is based on a eddy-resolving NEMO model application at 1/36º horizontal resolution, being Mercator-Ocean in charge of the model code development. …
