摘要

Abstract

The wind system over the China seas plays an important role in climate variation there. In this paper

ERS-2 scatterometer winds covering the period of 1998 and the area of 25–411N

117–1301E were analyzed and compared to NCEP winds and buoy winds in the same period and location

to assess how well the ERS-2 data reflect the real wind regime

at least for this area. The results indicated that ERS-2 scatterometer winds are closer to buoy observations than NCEP winds. In addition

a new wind-wave growth relation was applied to calculate wave parameters.
