This dataset includes consistent marine future scenarios for the North Sea for water levels, currents and sea states, and for the Baltic Sea for sea states only, based on CMIP5 scenarios. The data are obtained using the hydrodynamic model TRIM-NP and the wave model WAM, respectively. The regional atmospheric forcing varies according to the selected scenario. The results for the North Sea are carried out within the WAKOS project and the results for the Baltic Sea are carried out within the ECAS-Baltic project.
