The Bora, Sirocco, Meltemi, Tramontane, Lebeccio, Mistral and Marin are the most common winds of the Mediterranean. How can you get to know them in advance and what should you expect from them while at sea?
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.
17 cze 2022 · In the Mediterranean we find different winds depending on the time of the year and the best way to recognise the direction is through the wind rose or compass rose. Each point indicates the direction from which the wind is coming, unlike the compass, the cardinal points on the rose represent the geographical point and not the magnetic point.
