DESCRIPTION

This package is the fully revised version of the FES2022 distribution. This distribution includes the FES2022 tidal prediction software managed on this page and the FES2022 tides databases A full description of the FES2022 tidal solution is given in the handbook (https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/fileadmin/documents/data/tools/hdbk_FES2022.pdf) and in the paper (Lyard et al. 2024).

This new code is under development and it is designed to handle the new finite element grids of FES2022. It will become official at the end of this year. For now, we do not provide support for this new version.
