An Approach towards a 40-Year High-Resolution Wave Hindcast for the Southern North Sea
INTRODUCTION 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...
