Mesoscale Wind Predictions for Wave Model Evaluation

Abstract

The long-term goal is to demonstrate the significance and importance of high-resolution (< 10 km) atmospheric wind and surface stress fields produced by an atmospheric mesoscale data assimilation system to the numerical prediction of ocean waves by an appropriate wave model.
