More Information
Summary:The main stages ofthe modern approach to the wave climate simulation are considered. One of such stages includes the use of wind information as input data for the wave simulation with numerical hydrodynamic models. One of the main sources of wind information is reanalysis data on wind speed at the height of 10 m above the surface which can be used without previous correction for wave calculation not in all sea areas. The approaches to the reanalysis data correction are demonstrated for different seas.
