- Wind direction angle convention – Set the convention for the wind direction field for the model.
- "Cartesian" – The direction FROM. The origin (0.0) indicates the direction is coming from North. It increases clockwise from North (viewed from above). This is most commonly used for wind direction.
- "Meterologic" – The direction TO. The origin (0.0) indicates the direction is going to the North. It increases clockwise (like a bearing) so 45 degrees indicates a direction heading towards the North East.
- "Oceanographic" – The Cartesian coordinate axes as a direction TO. East, or the positive X axis, defines the zero direction.
