BY MARK A. HEMER, XIAOLAN L. WANG, RALF WEISSE, AND VAL R. SWAIL tions, challenges, and recommendations relevant to wind-waves in a changing climate. Four themes are addressed: historical wave climate variability and change, global wave climate projections, regional wave climate projections, and coupled wind–wave–climate modeling. The COWCLIP community aims to generate wave climate projections (ultimately of global extent) and aid comprehensive assessments of their uncertainty by: a) providing a systematic community-based framework to support validation, intercomparison, documentation, and data access for wave climate projections; b) describing best practice for regional wave climate projections; and c) engaging the interests of the wind-wave community into the wider climate community and ultimately developing coupled atmosphere–wave–ocean GCMs in order to derive quantitative estimates of wind-wave–driven feedbacks in the coupled climate system.
