U.S. Wave by Month
These data depict a wave energy resource characterization for the US Exclusive Economic Zone. This climatology is based on a multi-resolution 32 year hindcast that used the WaveWatchIII and Simulating WAve Nearshore (SWAN) wave models. A collection of five variables are reported at the annual and monthly intervals. Statistics for each variable are provided as point and hexagon features.
