Guedes Soares, C., Gonçalves, M., Salvação, N. e Rusu, L. (2016), “Validation of an operational wave forecasting system for the North Atlantic area”, Maritime Technology and Engineering 3, Guedes Soares, C. & Santos T. A., (Eds.), Taylor & Francis Group, London, UK, pp. 1037-1043

An operational wave forecasting system is presented, based on numerical models for wind and wave forecasting. This system is based on wave models WAM (Wave prediction Model) and SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore), driven by the wind fields provided by the atmospheric models GFS (Global Forecast System) from NCEP (National Centers for Environmental Prediction) and WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting Model). The system is an improved version of the one implemented in 2008 and runs automatically in Linux environment. The forecasting system outputs for four days ahead. The validations of the results is carried out by performing comparisons with both wind and wave measurements.
