Supplemental meteorological/wave/ice parameters

This table is helpful for understanding file requirements and how the meteorological parameter line (informally, the WTIMINC line) should look in the fort.15 file. These are principally determined by the value of the NWS line (also in the fort.15 file), though note that the "NWS" values below are for the full-length value in the fort.15 file. Useful information is also contained in the fort.22 file format and wind stress pages.
