Description
Adriatic Sea, mean annual 50th, 90th, 95th and 99th percentiles of the wind-wave climate from WAVEWATCH III (6.07) forced with 1-hour ERA5 fields (25 km) statistically scaled to QQ-match COSMO-CLM fields (8 km).
Variables.
1) Significant wave height Hs
2) Expected value of the spatio-temporal maximum wave height <Hmax>
2) Expected value of the spatio-temporal maximum crest height <Cmax>
Reference periods:
1) Historical climate: years 1981-2010
2) Future climate: years 2021-2050 (IPCC scenario RCP8.5)
