Abstract
A descriptive investigation on the wind wave climate off the Ebro delta has been conducted on the basis of time series of data collected after 1978. Sea states have been classified into phenomenological cathegories according to available directional data. For selected records, illustrating the different wave conditions, statistical and spectral analyses have been performed so as to assess the short-term characteristics of the wave climate. Regarding the longer-term evolution, correlations among the main wave parameters have been established. Theoretical probability distributions have been fitted to the observed frequency histograms in order to complete the description of the average wave climate. Furthermore, some statistics of extreme wave heights have also been considered.
