STUDY ON THE WIND AND WAVE EXTREME PARAMETERSOF TONKIN GULF IN THE SOUTH CHINA SEA-THE APPLICATIONS OF LAGFD NUMERICAL MODELS

摘要

Based on the hindcast of the severest 75 tropical cyclones (hereafter is called TCs) which affected Tonkin Gulf in history, the present paper gives sea surface wind and wave extreme parameters at 38 points corresponding to (1/2)×(1/2)?grid in the Gulf. The research increases our understanding of the meteo-ocean conditions on the whole area and provides basic data for ocean environmental research and engineering design.
