In this study, global satellite data were analyzed to determine trends in oceanic wind speed and significant wave height over the 33-year period from 1985 2018. The analysis uses an extensive database obtained 31 missions comprising three types of instruments—altimeters, radiometers, scatterometers. shows small increases mean period, with larger extreme conditions (90th percentiles). largest occur Southern Ocean. Confidence results is strengthened because are confirmed by all systems. An set...
Abstract This dataset consists of 33 years (1985 to 2018), global significant wave height and wind speed obtained from 13 altimeters, namely: GEOSAT , ERS-1 TOPEX ERS-2 GFO JASON-1 ENVISAT JASON-2 CRYOSAT-2 HY-2A SARAL JASON-3 SENTINEL-3A . The altimeter data have been calibrated validated against National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) buoy data. Differences between as a function time are investigated for long-term stability. A cross validation altimeters is also carried out in order...

The accuracy of wind speed measurements is important in many applications. In the present work, error standard deviations measured by satellites and National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) buoys were estimated using triple collocation. included six altimeters, three scatterometers, four radiometers. altimeters TOPEX, ERS-2, JASON-1, ENVISAT, JASON-2, CRYOSAT-2, whilst scatterometers QUIKSCAT, METOP-A, METOP-B radiometers SSMI-F15, AMSR-2, WINDSAT, GMI. Hence, a total 14 platform measurements,...
A long-duration, multi-mission altimeter dataset is analyzed to determine its accuracy in determining long-term trends significant wave height. Two calibration methods are investigated: “altimeter–buoy” and “altimeter–altimeter” calibration. The approach shows larger positive globally, but both approaches subject temporal non-homogeneity between missions. This limits the of such datasets approximately ±0.2 cm/year sampling pattern altimeters also investigated if under-sampling impacts...
Abstract Global ocean wind speed observed from seven different scatterometers, namely, ERS-1 , ERS-2 QuikSCAT, MetOp-A OceanSat-2 MetOp-B and Rapid Scatterometer (RapidScat) were calibrated against National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) data to form a consistent long-term database of direction. Each scatterometer was independently NDBC buoy then cross validation between scatterometers performed. The total duration all is approximately 27 years, 1992 until 2018. For calibration purposes, only buoys...

The joint extremal spatial dependence of wind speed and significant wave height in the North East Atlantic is quantified using Metop satellite scatterometer hindcast observations for period 2007–2018, a multivariate conditional extremes (MSCE) model, ultimately motivated by work Heffernan Tawn (2004). analysis involves (a) registering individual swaths corresponding data onto template transect (running approximately north-east to south-west, between British Isles Iceland), (b) non-stationary...
Abstract Extreme significant wave height estimates, and their probability of exceedance, are fundamental offshore coastal engineering design parameters. These estimates characterized by uncertainty due to an incomplete understanding the atmosphere‐ocean energy momentum exchanges during intense storms. This particularly affects extreme statistics ocean regions exposed large frequent synoptic disturbances such as Extra‐Tropical Cyclones (ETCs). In this work, we assessed performance global...
A 27-year-long calibrated multi-mission scatterometer data set is used to determine the global basin-scale and near-coastal wind resource. In addition mean percentile values, analysis also determines values of both 50- 100-year return period speeds. The clearly shows seasonal variability speeds differing response two hemispheres. maximum in each hemisphere are comparable but there a much larger cycle northern hemisphere. As result, southern has more consistent year-round climate. Hence,...
