- Abstract
- The coupling of a suite of meteorological limited area models with a wave prediction system based
on the nesting of different wave models provides for medium-range sea state forecasts at the Mediterranean,
regional and coastal scale. The new system has been operational at ISPRA since September 2012, after the
upgrade of both the meteorological BOLAM model and large-scale marine components of the original SIMM
forecasting system and the implementation of the new regional and coastal (WAM-SWAN coupling) chain of
models. The coastal system is composed of nine regional-scale high-resolution grids, covering all Italian seas
and six coastal grids at very high resolution, capable of accounting for the effects of the interaction between
the incoming waves and the bathymetry. A preliminary analysis of the performance of the system is discussed
here focusing on the ability of the system to simulate the mean features of the wave climate at the regional
and sub-regional scale. The results refer to two different verification studies. The first is the comparison of the
directional distribution of almost one year of wave forecasts against the known wave climate in northwestern
Sardinia and central Adriatic Sea. The second is a sensitivity test on the effect on wave forecasts of the spatial
resolution of the wind forcing, being the comparison between wave forecast and buoy data at two locations in
the northern Adriatic and Ligurian Sea during several storm episodes in the period autumn 2012-winter 2013. (literal)
