Estimation of extreme wave height return periods from short-term interpolation of multi-mission satellite data: application to the South Atlantic
<p>We analyzed the spatial pattern of wave extremes in the South Atlantic Ocean by using multiple altimeter platforms spanning the period 1993–2015. Unlike the traditional approach adopted by previous studies, consisting of computing the monthly mean, median or maximum values inside a bin o...
