在中国海上的风系在在那里的气候变化起一个重要作用。在这篇论文,盖住 1998 的时期的 ERS-2 scatterometer 风和 25-41 °N 的区域, 117-13O °E 被分析并且在一样的时期和地点与 NCEP 风和浮标相比弯屈,到估计多好 ERS-2 数据反映真实的风政体,至少为这个区域。结果显示 ERS-2 scatterometer 风比 NCEPwinds 接近浮标观察。另外,一种新风波浪生长关系被使用计算波浪参数。
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 25-41°N, 117-130°E 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.
