5 Wave Model Evaluation and Diagnostics System (WaveMEDS) 1. Partition Buoy Spectrum 2. Overlay Buoy Partition Template on Hindcast Spectrum 3. Compute Integral Parameters in each Partition Domain: H m0, T p, θ m NDBC Station z 09 November 2000 WAM at z 09 November 2000 Direction From (Deg) Frequency (Hz) Frequency (Hz)
6 Wave Model Evaluation and Diagnostics System (WaveMEDS) 1. Partition Buoy Spectrum 2. Overlay Buoy Partition Template on Hindcast Spectrum 3. Compute Integral Parameters in each Partition Domain: H m0, T p, θ m 4. Perform Statistical Analyses: RMS Error, Bias, Scatter Index, etc Temporal Correlations Quantile-Quantile Analysis

14 WW3 Wave System Comparison: Southern Swell H m0 =1m Hindcast Frequency (Hz) November 2000 Height Period Direction
15 WW3 Wave System Comparison: Northern Swell H m0 =1m Hindcast Frequency (Hz) November 2000 Height Period Direction
16 Source Winds too High? Enhanced kinematic analysis of March 2000 storms reduced bias by 20-30%
17 Need to Cap Atmospheric Drag C D? Wave Height Bias from Year 2000 Topex/Poseidon Altimetry WW3 Un-Capped C D 5 4 WAVEWATCH III CD * URI model Cap 1 Powell et al Powell et al.

18 Need to Cap Atmospheric Drag C D? Wave Height Bias from Year 2000 Topex/Poseidon Altimetry WW3 Un-Capped C D WW3 Capped C D (m)
19 Summary Points 1. Unique Wave system validation method applied to 3 numerical models 2. All 3 models performed well; WAVEWATCH III consistently outperformed others 3. Mature swell height bias (+) a problem with 3G hindcasts in Northern Hemisphere winter % of bias attributed to hindcast wind field errors % of bias attributed to un-capped drag coefficient Additional gains will likely require source term improvements!
