30 Conclusions We proposed a new approach (events based approach) to model swell climate. We developed a new method for swell and wind sea events identification: Time-domain Expansion of Spectral Partitionning technique (TESP). We proposed a model for an individual swell event: Swell Event Model (SEM). We constructed a stochastic generator of swell events. K. A. Kpogo-Nuwoklo et al. Stochastic swell events generator 7 / 8
