Hello, I have a question about ERA5 wave data (significant wave height, wave period) near the coast. Suppose I select a point in the ocean that belongs to a 0.5° × 0.5° grid cell, and part of that cell extends over land. My question is: If the center of the grid cell is over the ocean, does ERA…

Hi, Thanks for the link to the article about the ERA5 Wave HRES native grid. I have read it, and it explains the grid coordinates well. However, my question is about how wave values are handled in coastal grid cells: If a 0.5° (or 0.36° native) grid cell has its center over the ocean but part o…
