研究人员对来自加州大学圣地亚哥分校斯克里普斯海洋研究所的海岸信息数据计划（CDIP）的深海波浪记录进行了评估，以创建一个统计平均波浪数据集。然后，在加利福尼亚海岸向海的100和1000米深度等高线上，建立了1°纬度区域的长期年平均和月近海波浪概率分布。概率分布被用来模拟和量化从加利福尼亚海岸波浪中提取有用能量的潜力，使用软件，模拟近海波浪（SWAN）。该方法用于绘制波浪能资源，以便进行可能的波浪能转换。结果表明，北美大陆西海岸的高能波向北增加，从南部浅水低至约10 kW m−1，到北部高至32 kW m−1。版权所有©2007 John Wiley & Sons， Ltd
A collection of deepwater wave records, especially those from Coastal Information Data Program (CDIP) Data from UCSD Scripps Institute of Oceanography were assessed to create a statistical average wave data set. Then, a long‐term annual average and monthly offshore wave probability distributions were created for 1° latitude bins bound by 100 and 1000 m depth contours seaward of California coast. The probability distributions were used to simulate and quantify the potential for useful energy extraction from the coastal wave of California using software, Simulating Waves Near‐shore (SWAN). The method is used to map the wave energy resource for possible wave energy conversion. The results indicate that the west coast of the continental North America has energetic waves that increase northward—from as low as about 10 kW m−1 in the shallow waters of the south, to as high as 32 kW m−1 in the north.
