THE TEST OF APPLICATION OF WAM MODEL FOR THE WIND WAVE FORECASTING OF THE BALTIC SEA

Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Morskiego - Year 1998, Vol 25, Issue 2

Abstract

The following presents a test of implementation of WAM- a third generation wind wave model for oceans, for computations of wave conditions on the Baltic Sea. This work presents an actual state of implementations of this model for existing in the Maritime Institute data base for bathymetry, input meteorological forces and computation possibilities, and point sout future potential of its development and implementation for operational forecasting. Special attention was given to areas near the Polish coast, where field experiments POLRODEX were performed. The computations were made for homogenous wind fields, as well as for wind fields connected with real meteorological situations.
