Extreme waves approaching coastlines

This dataset provides extreme waves (Hs: significant wave height, Hb:breaking wave height, a proxy of the wave energy flux) simulated with the WWIII model, and extracted along global coastlines. Two simulations, including or not Tropical Cyclones (TCs) in the forcing wind field, are provided.

本数据集提供了沿全球海岸线提取、由WWIII海浪数值模式模拟得到的极端海浪数据，包含有效波高（significant wave height，缩写Hs）与破波高（breaking wave height，缩写Hb），其中破波高可作为波浪能通量的替代指标。本数据集包含两组模拟试验，两组的强迫风场分别纳入与不纳入热带气旋（TCs）。
