A New Nonparametric Method to Correct Model Data: Application to Significant Wave Height from the ERA-40 Re-Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new nonparametric method to correct model data is proposed. At any given point in space and time the correction is determined from ?analogs? in a learning dataset. The learning dataset contains model data and simultaneous ...
100-Year Return Value Estimates for Ocean Wind Speed and Significant Wave Height from the ERA-40 Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this article global estimates of 100-yr return values of wind speed and significant wave height are presented. These estimates are based on the ECMWF 40-yr Re-Analysis (ERA-40) data and are linearly corrected using ...
North Sea Wave Analysis Using Data Assimilation and Mesoscale Model Forcing Winds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article explores the use of the ensemble Kalman filter technique to improve the accuracy of North Sea wave field analyses. A nonhydrostatic convective-permitting mesoscale model was used to provide high-resolution ...
Intercomparison of Different Wind–Wave Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes the comparison of wind speed and significant wave height data from several reanalyses. The data are assessed against time-averaged altimeter and buoy measurements. The comparisons between the datasets ...
