Results of the wave hindcast and following wave climate analysis have shown marked regional characteristics of the wave climate, related to the peculiarities of the regional winds blowing over the Mediterranean sub-basins.
1 lis 2021 · The climate variability of wind waves is evaluated at seasonal scale by proposing and adopting a definition of seasons for the Mediterranean Sea states that is based on the satellite altimetry...
3 lis 2021 · In the present study, we elaborate a detailed assessment of the changes in wave climates observed during the last 41 years in the WMed, and those focusing on the trends of mean and Max SWH, mean and Max WS, and on the last records of Max SWH observed during the last decade.
23 maj 2004 · Abstract and Figures. The wind climate of the Mediterranean basin is considered as derived from a ten year long time series of wind model data. The work presented here is part of the...
5 lip 2021 · This study presents a detailed analysis of changes in wind and wave climate in the Western Mediterranean Sea (WMed), based on 41 years of accurate wind and wave hindcasts.
28 lip 2022 · The mean annual and the interannual variability of wind speed are reduced in the southern parts of the Mediterranean basin, compared to the corresponding northern parts. The angular variance of the mean annual wind direction exhibits an analogous behavior.
cyclogenesis and winds, ocean bathymetry that is shaped by narrow and shallow straits, passages and sills, and other features. From meteorological and climatological perspectives, the Mediterranean is characterized by its ‘‘own’’ climate, i.e. Mediter-ranean climate, characterized by rainy winters and dry summer (Ulbrich et al. 2012).
