Description
Summary:The Labrador Extreme Waves Experiment (LEWEX) is designed to evaluate the in situ and remote sensors of the sea surface. This report is a source document for specifying climatological wind and wave data for the Labrador Sea. This report also provides atmospheric qualities such as temperature and sea ice which are known to affect the operation of certain ship systems as well as tactical decision making. Keywords: Ocean waves; Marine climatology; Superstructure icing. PE62936N, PNF66412, WUDN507045, TN2F66412001.
