Changes in extreme ocean wave heights under 1.5 °C, 2 °C, and 3 °C global warming
This study inspects the global changes in seasonal extreme ocean wave heights under different levels of global warming (1.5 °C, 2 °C, and 3 °C) based on statistical wave projections derived from CMIP5 multi-model simulations. The results show robust increases in wave extremes up to 15% (∼1 m) over S...
