String summary "Average Wave Direction for the Windsea Timeseries - North Sea - The domain is a lon/lat grid that covers the range [48.5, 57.033] in latitude and the range [-4.05, 9.25] in longitude. The latitude increment is 0.066 degrees, the longitude increment is 0.1 degrees. The spectral analysis is provided every hour. The sea surface is forced by the 1-hourly meteo forecasts provided by the ECMWF";

Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its
selection constraints.
The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names,
followed by a collection of
constraints (e.g., variable<value),
each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
