Intercomparison of Assimilated Coastal Wave Data in the Northwestern Pacific Area
View through CrossRef
The assimilated coastal wave data are useful for wave climate study, coastal engineering, and design for marine disaster protection. However, the assimilated coastal wave data are few. Here, wave analysis data produced by the JMA (Japan Meteorological Agency) and ERA5 wave data were compared with GPS (Global Positioning System) buoy-measured wave data. In addition, the accuracy of ERA5 wave data for various conditions was investigated. The accuracy of JMA analysis wave height was better than that of ERA5 wave height. The ERA5 wave height was underestimated as the wave height increased. The accuracy of the ERA5 wave height was significantly different in fetch-unlimited and fetch-limited conditions. The difference of the skill metrics between fetch-unlimited and fetch-limited conditions was due to the overestimation of the fetch in the ERA5 grid. This result also applied to the wave period.
