Abstract

The objective of the EuroROSE project was to combine area covering ground-based remote-sensed wave and current data with high resolution numerical forecast models to provide now- and forecasts for coastal marine operators. The first experiment to test and demonstrate the system took place on the coast of Norway, north of Bergen in March 2000. Qualitative and quantitative intercomparisons of the wave measurements and wave model products from this experiment are presented. These include measurements using the WERA HF radar, the WaMoS X-band radar, a directional waverider and output from the WAM wave model. Comparisons are made of the full directional spectra and of various derived parameters. This is the first ever intercomparison between HF and X-band radar wave measurements and between either of these and WAM.
