Zusammenfassung |
Wave forecasting aspects for basins with
complicate geomorphology, such as the Aegean Sea, are investigated through an
intercomparison study. The efficiency of the available wind models (ECMWF, UKMO)
to reproduce wind patterns over special basins, as well as three wave models
incorporating different physics and characteristics (WAM, AUT, WACCAS), are
tested for selected storm cases representing the typical wind situations over
the basin. From the wave results, discussed in terms of time-series and
statistical parameters, the crucial role is pointed out of the wind resolution
and the reliability of the different wave models to estimate the wave climate in
such a basin. The necessary grid resolution is also tested, while for a specific
test case (December 1991) ERS-1 satellite data are compared with those of the
model. |
