The Bay of Plenty Climatology provides daily average values estimated from a 25+ years (1994-2020) high-resolution (~1 km horizontal resolution) hydrodynamic hindcast of the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand. This repository contains 12 files, corresponding to each month, with the 3D daily climatology for sea surface elevation, temperature, salinity, velocity (u, v) and in z-coordinates.

For practicality the time units are referenced to hours since day 0 and the calendar used is a 366 day-year. A description of the configuration of the simulation is provided by Montaño et al. (in prep).
