U.S. Navy Hindcast Spectral Ocean Wave Model Climatic Atlas: North Atlantic Ocean
Existing wave climatologies are primarily based on visual ship observations. These climatologies may be unreliable, particularly in data-sparse regions. Shipborne wave recorders have provided reliable wave data for selected areas of the oceans, but a scarcity of these data remains. This pilot atlas...
