Wind-waves are the most important environmental parameter for the design of coastal and offshore structures, sediment transport, coastal erosion etc. Therefore, an accurate evaluation of the wave climate is of great importance. Due to the lack of long term measurements, nowadays numerically modeled wave data are widely used for determining the wave climate. The numerically simulated wave data are...
This study aims to assess the quality of two sources of surface winds, i.e. the ECMWF (European Center for Medium Range Weather Forecasts) modeled and the measured data, for wave modeling in the Persian Gulf. A third generation model, i.e. SWAN was employed for wave simulation and the results were compared with the recorded wave data. It was found that ECMWF underestimates the wind magnitude and the...
