GLOBAL WAVE CLIMATE TRENDS: WHAT DO THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE WAVE BUOYS TELL US?. (2023). Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 37, waves.38. https://doi.org/10.9753/icce.v37.waves.38
Resumen
Australia’s national wave data network presently consists of around 35 directional wave buoys distributed across the Australian coastline, with 11 of these buoys have been in operation since the mid-seventies. South Africa is home to 4 offshore wave buoys which have operating since the early eighties. New Zealand wave buoy network is relatively younger, with 3 wave buoys in operation since the early 2000s. All of these buoys have been providing invaluable longterm historical wave data which have allowed the offshore and coastal scientific community to better assess extreme wave climates and their impact on the coastline. Additionally, these data records of wave observations are key for model validation and to better understand the effects of climate change on the local and regional wave climate.Referencias
