A regional wave forecasting system in East Asia, including the Korean Peninsula, was built based on WAVEWATCH III using offshore wind forecast data from the Global Data Assimilation Prediction System. The numerical simulations were performed on the sensitivity of the interaction between input wind and wave development. The forecasts for each condition were compared and verified with the observational data of marine meteorologi...

The maximum significant wave height ( H s m a x ) induced by a tropical cyclone (TC) can be estimated from an empirical fetch formula using the TC’s size, maximum wind speed, and translation speed, in which larger, stronger, and faster-moving TCs generally have higher the H s m a x . In the formula, the radius of maximum wind (RMW) has been widely used as the TC size parameter under the assumption that H s m a x is mainly gene...

A wave forecast numerical simulation was performed for Typhoon Lingling around the Korean Peninsula and in the East Asia region using sea winds from 24 members produced by the Ensemble Prediction System for Global (EPSG) of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). Significant wave height was observed by the ocean data buoys used to verify data of the ensemble wave model, and the results of the ensemble members were analyzed...
