چکیده
In the marine environment the planing of the sustainable development of economic activities requires long term information about the prevailing environmental conditions. Detailed knowledge on local wave conditions is an essential prerequisite for designing marine and coastal protection structures. To estimate the risk which emerges from local wave conditions knowledge on both, the wave climatology and the extreme events is necessary.

A 40-year High-resolution Wind and Wave Hindcast for the Southern North Sea
The planing of sustainable development and of economic activities in the marine environment requires long term information about the prevailing environmental conditions. For the design of marine and coastal protection structures detailed knowledge on local wave conditions is an essential prerequisite. To estimate the risk which emerges from local wave conditions knowledge on both, the wave clim...
متن کاملA 40 Years Hindcast of Wind, Sea Level and Waves in European Waters
The paper describes the initial efforts in a project whose objective is to obtain a 40-year hindcast of wind, sea level and wave climatology for European waters. The 40-year global atmospheric re-analysis carried out by the National Centre for Environmental Prediction, Washington, USA (NCEP) and the National Centre for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, Colorado, USA (NCAR) will be used as forcing ...
متن کاملAN APPROACH TOWARDS WAVE CLIMATE STUDY IN THE PERSIAN GULF AND THE GULF OF OMAN: SIMULATION AND VALIDATION
This article describes the 11-year wave simulation (1992-2002) in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman using the input data derived from European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). The ECMWF 10 meter wind field and spectral wave boundary condition at 18 ْN degree are input into one of the latest versions of numerical wave models (3rd generation) after a few local modifications. ...
متن کاملWave Hindcast Study of the Caspian Sea
The significant effect of waves on coastal and marine activities urges the precise identification of wave characteristics using field measurements, theoretical studies, physical modeling or numerical simulations. In order to study thoroughly the wave climate in the Caspian Sea, a wave modeling and hindcast project was performed by Iranian National Center for Oceanography. In this study, one of ...
