Calculating the return value using a mathematical model of significant wave height

This study presents a new method for calculating return values. The essence of the method is that it utilizes nonstationary data to calculate the return value for a region in the Northeast Pacific. The nonstationary data was obtained from a model which was previously developed for the behavior of the significant wave height as a function of time in the region. The method is illustrated by convolving two generalized Pareto distribution functions fitted to two parts of the model, computing a suitable extreme value from the new distribution function, and calculating the return value using this extreme value.     

基于台风浪后报模型的外海重现期波浪要素分析

选用Jelesnianski(1965)热带气旋经验风场模式模拟台风场,采用基于动谱平衡方程的SWAN模型模拟台风浪,对1951—2010年我国东南沿海可能产生较大影响的台风浪进行了推算。在良好的风、浪验证基础上,基于台风浪数值后报结果,将波高数据进行回归分析,通过对广东沿海外海波要素计算结果与实测资料对比,结果表明两者吻合良好,可为海区内工程提供较好的参考。
