ES25010The Australian wave forecast system with statistical wind correction
The Bureau of Meteorology provides vital marine services that strongly depend on guidance from a suite of numerical weather prediction models. These models have vastly improved skill because of increased resolution, enhanced data assimilation (increasing numbers and types of observations), and improved physical parameterisations – and are verified against satellite and wave buoy observations. Compared to the legacy wave model and the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast reanalysis ERA5, the Bureau’s global wave forecast system shows increased skill.
