Abstract

A superimposed wind field is constructed using empirical wind fields and NCEP reanalyzed wind fields from the advantages and disadvantages of the two, and the simulation result is good compared with the real wind field data. Eight typhoons greatly affecting the South China Sea is simulated using WAVEWATCH H based on the superimposed wind field data, the superimposed wind field has shown higher accurate and more reliable in simula-ting typhoon-induced waves.
