WTIMINC
WTIMINC
is a parameter in the fort.15 file that informs the model of the meteorological forcing time interval in seconds. For most values of NWS
, WTIMINC
is also the time interval between successive records of meteorological data in input files like the fort.22.
Usage Notes
For a detailed breakdown of what goes on this line in the fort.15 file, see the Supplemental Meteorological/Wave/Ice Parameters. WTIMINC
is required unless you are using one of the parametric vortex models for meteorology (see NWS
). WTIMINC is usually a single integer. An exception this is when NWS
= -14, where the first value indicates the time interval of the GRIB2/NetCDF dataset, and the second value indicates the time interval of the OWI dataset.
