Characteristic analysis of wind field and sea wave field in the western part of the n. pacfic ocean

Abstract: The meteorological data for shipping in the The western part of the N. Pacific Ocean during 1950~1995 analyzed taking 5°×5° latiude and longitude as staistical girds.The characteristics and changing laws of the wind, wave and swell are given. This area is representative's monsoon area. In the period of monsoon, the directions of wind, wind wave and swell are roughly consistent. In a year, the direction of wind wave is almost Northeast in equatorial zone. The monsoon in winter is stronger than that one in summer,corresponding, the average wave high is higher, and the frequencies of rough sea and heavy swell are also stronger.Both of North Indian Ocean and this sea area is monsoon area, but characteristic is opposite. This text provide specification data of wind field and wave field and the changing law for ships sailing、 working、 scientist and military active in The western part of the N. Pacific Ocean.
