Metadata: 1994-2014, DHI, Rampion Offshore Wind Farm, MetOcean and Meteorological Mast Study
Abstract:
DHI were commissioned by LIC Energy UK Ltd (LICE) to undertake an analysis of the metocean conditions required for the design of the foundations for wind turbine generators (WTG) and sub-stations for the Rampion Offshore Wind Farm (ROWF). This series presents the study of the metocean design conditions in the ROWF area, using historic Meteorological data and metocean survey data acquired from 2010-2011. The reports and data results contained in the series intend to inform the final design and refines the database used to determine the metocean conditions by implementing a high-resolution wave model for the English Channel and ROWF area. The series also includes detailed validation of the hydrodynamic data (water levels and currents). Data deliverables are split into 4 data folders , 3 representing potential turbine locations at extremities of the design layout and 1 representing the substation location. Each folder contains tables and charts summarizing modelling results at each location including: 1. Time series of wind water level current and wave parameters 2. Annual wind, current and wave rose plots 3. Scatter diagrams of Total, Wind-sea and Swell Hm0 against Wind speed 4. Scatter tables of individual wave height (H) vs. period (T) and MWD (H-T scatter and H-MWD) 5. The wind-wave misalignment that was calculated 6. The astronomical values of WL 7. Wind Speed and extreme speeds 8. Water Level 9. Current Speed 10. Significant wave height and maximum individual wave height 11. Reduced wave height 12. Joint probability analysis 13. Met Mast Analysis 14. Air temperature 15. Air density and pressure

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5320 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 1994-2014, DHI, Rampion Offshore Wind Farm, MetOcean and Meteorological Mast Study |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | bbf17b4012b4449386257cbd9b4d74fa |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | DHI-41318-48 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1994-02-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2014-01-21 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | asNeeded |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The database used consists of hindcast model data from three sources: 1. DHIâ??s existing 2D flow model covering the North Atlantic (HDNA-DA) for the 18-year period February 1994-February 2012 2. DHIâ??s Rampion wave model covering the English Channel for the 18-year period February 1994- February 2012 developed especially for this project 3. The NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) wind data set from NOAA for the 18-year period 1994-2012 These models were forced by both tidal and meteorological boundary conditions to produce the database used in this study. It should be noted that these model databases do not currently include 2013, hence comparisons to the measured data are halted at the end of February 2012, but in the case of the HDNA-DA model, data are available until August 2012 for comparison of model suitability. More detail and information on the model database are provided in Appendix A, the following provide a brief summary of the general applicability for this analysis. Please refer to DHI Report "RAM-LIC-FMP-REP-0008_03--Metocean Report Stage 3 Assessment.pdf" in the reports section of the series for more information on data quality and sources of data used in the Metocean Study. |
