    "descript": "This dataset presents historical (1979-2014) and projected (2020-2050) hourly time-series of wave heights, wave periods, incident wave directions, and directional spreading at distinct points along the U.S. West Coast and surrounding Hawai\u2019i. The time-series were developed by running the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u2019s (NOAA\u2019s) WAVEWATCHIII model. Wind and sea-ice fields from seven different Global Climate or General Circulation Models from the CMIP6 High-Resolution Model Intercomparison Project were used to simulate waves across the globe at a 0.5-degree resolution (approximately 50 km, depending on latitude) and further downscaled to 10- (approximately 18 km) and 4-arc-minute (approximately 7 km) model grids. Point model output data extracted from NOAA\u2019s 4 arc-minute grid for the U.S. West Coast and Hawai\u2019i (wc_4m) are provided herein.",
