...Erik Vanem This article presents an extreme value analysis on data of significant wave height based on time-series simulation. A method to simulate time series with given marginal distribution and preserving the autocorrelation structure in the data is applied to significant wave height data...

...Dag Myrhaug; Bernt J. Leira; Håvard Holm This paper provides a bivariate distribution of wave power and significant wave height, as well as a bivariate distribution of wave power and a characteristic wave period for sea states, and the statistical aspects of wave power for sea states are discussed...
