ABSTRACT
This report is a Source document for specifying wind and wave conditions for the North Pacific Ocean. The
data are derived from the U.S. Navy's Spectral Ocean
Wave Model (SOWM) hindcast wind and wave climatology.
Some initial efforts by the Navy to synthesize the
hind-casts into design tools are presented in this report. The repott provides seasonal and geographic
distribu-tions of wind and wave parameters and specifies mathematical models by which wave spectra, required by any ship seakeeping
performance methodology, can be developed. Long-term extreme wave predictions for fatigUe analysis are also discussed.
ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION .
This tepott was 13repared under the sponsorship of the Naval .Sea Systems'
Command (NAVSEA), Code: 63R-34 Surface Wave Spectra. for Ship Design (SWSSD) Program
under Progtam Element 62759N and Project Number SF 59 557 695. It
is

and Development Center (DTNSRDC).
INTRODUCTION
Until recently, the-wind and wave environment has played a very:minor role in
the designand,evaluation Of Ships and offshore platforms. The consideration of
ship performance
in
the prevailing environment has focused primarily onoptimiza-tion Of calm water resistance and other factors related to the
ship
propulsionsystem. The effort to develop-reliable open ocean wind and wave statistics was
greatly advanced with the introduction of the Spectral Ocean Wave Model in 1975.
Briefly, archived Wind data are used by Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center (FNOC)
to hindcast the resulting wave fields for approximately 1500 locations (grid
points) throughout the Northern Hemisphere. The wind fields are updated at six
hour intervals over a period 'of 17 years. Thus, the resulting wave directional
Spectra are really a hindtast time history of wave conditions throughout the
Northern Hemisphere over
a
period of years. Some initial effortsby
the Navy tosynthesize the hindcasts into design tools are reported in References 1* to 6 and
summarized in Nefetence
7.
These reports generally develop techniques forparameterizing the spectra and developing
joint
freqUencie8 of occurrence of .critical wave and Wind parameters for a.few particular locations, Additionally,
the occurrence:of extremes, the persistence of sea severity,
and
the characteristic spread and shape of spectral directionality are examined.At present, design decisions may be bitted by existing techniques which are
essentially rePtedeptatiVe of only North Atlantic conditions. This-report it
intended to accelerate ongoing effottt-to take the Navy North. Pacific hindcast-data available in
a
usable form to the entire naVal engineering community.OPEN OCEAN NORTH PACIFIC
The open Ocean areas identified on Figure 1 span the North Pacific from the
latitude of the Northeast Trade Winds (up to about 300 N) through those of the
prevailing-WeSterlies (30-0° N) and into the Polar Easterlies (above 500.N).
Additionally, the influence of land mass, currents, continental shelf, and local
- I
storm tracks each cause
a
different climatology Variation with longitude. Table 1, identifies the location of the Points currently included on Figure1.

The data distributions are developed for the 17-year period from 1959 to 1975.
Appendix A provides the data base of open ocean wind and wave conditions
derived fromthe 17-year hinddast wind and wave climatology. Wind and wave data
tables are provided for areas identified in the North Pacific open ocean region.
Both annual and seasonal distributions are provided. The seasons are defined by:
Winter - Decemloer-to February Spring - March to May
Summer - June to August
Fall - September to November
A few words are in order with regard to the quality of hindcast data. Since
the SOW hindcasts are based on the localized barometric pressures and resulting wind velocity fields, the wave observational biases of other wave models are
excluded, see Reference
8.
The SOWM is best used by statistically averaging waveconditions over
a
period of years for a specific location and season. Thehind-casts generally provide greater occurrences
of
higher sea states and Show lessoccurrences of lower sea states than visual observations. With regard to wave
periods, the hindcasts generally indicate longer wave periods for given heights
than for visual,observations. This is not Surprising as it is difficult to Observe
wave periods at sea and the codes used to record observed occurrences Onboard ship
are confusing to some observers.
Very
often the naval architect uses the most probable modal or peak wave period for several varying waVe heights. In this work,the modal periods, being longer, will cause larger responses to be calculated for
the longer ships. It is noted that the modal periods developed in this work are reflective of the peak of the entire (density) spectrum. Very often this coincides with the peak of the primary direction.
Figures 2 and 3 provide detailed comparisons of annual and winter season
occurrences respectively for the locations defined in Table. 1. These data are based on the occurrences provided in Appendix A. Generally, more severe conditions
prevail between 50 and 607 N with the north-western region indicating 8lightly
Worse conditions. However, during the winter season the emphasis shifts slightly to the north-eastern longitudes. For the annual comparison of significant WaVe
height occurrences for the grid points under consideration, the most consistently
Severe wave conditions occur in the north portion of the Pacific. Annual
occurrence comparisons of modal wave periods and wind speeds for these same grid
points also conform to the above specifications. Figure 4 provides comparisons of
the annual and winter significant wave height exceedances for the North Pacific and
the North Atlantic oceans. In general, annual data compares well for both oceans but winter.data does not.
WAVE SPECTRAL FAMILIES
BRETSCHNEIDER
In keeping with the recommendations of
the'
International Ship StructuresCongress (ISSC) and the International Towing Tank Conference (ITTC), as well as current U.S. Navy design practice, the two-parameter Bretschneider spectral
formulation is recommended for use for the open ocean areas. Bretschneider spectra represent the less common fully, developed as well as the usual partially developed seas that persist most of the time throughout the world oceans. The spectral den'-sity can be written in the form'
S(03) A w-5
expl-g

where A -

are the significant wave height

taken from the data bSse provided in Appendix A, see Appendix B for data format
description. As indicated in APpendik A, the frequency distribution, being fixedl
in SOW, permits only certain modal period valtes
in
the parameterization of thespectra.
MODIFIED jONSWAP,
, When the odean areas are relatiVely shallow, and at least partially surrounded
by land, the Bretsdhneider spectral formulation is not recommended for use.
Instead, the mean Modified JONSWAP Spectrum is recommended. This formulation was
developed by Hasselmann in order to model fetch-limited, shallow water wave
con-ditions, see Reference 9.
The resulting function is
a
generalization of the Pierson-Moskowitz form byinclusion of fetch as an additional parameter to wind speed. As it is usually
To4
and B 1944,5 sec 4 3 )
written, the mean JONSWAP spectrum is dependent on the two parameters wind speed and fetch. However, for simplicity as well as consistency with the current
state-of-the-art in seakeeping performance assessment, a JONSWAP expression
which is dependent only on the two parameters, significant wave height and modal
wave period, is desirable. Such an ,expression is derived in References 10 and
11 and written in the form

y = 3.3
for the mean JONSWAP spectraIf y = .1 and B,.= 0.0081, the JONSWAP spectrum
will
reduce exactly to the Pierson-Moskowitz spectrum.As with the Usual JONSWAP formulation, the modified expression given in
Equation
(4)
is for long-crested seas. While there is limited experimentalverification, the cosine squared spreading function is recommended for use with
the JONSWAP spectral fortulation at this time.
SPECTRAL MOMENTS
Due to the randomness of ocean waves, two records measured at different
times having the Same height and period generally would not have the same
spectrum. For the spectrum to remain the same, all moments must also remain the same. The various moments of the spectrum are defined as

6 COSINE-SQUARED SPREADING FUNCTION
Since ocean waves are usually multi-directional, a cosine-squared spreading
function is recommended to represent wave directionality. The function can be written as
1
s(w,v) cos2
cv
u) 3( w)(8)
= w
sh,o
(9)
where v represents the secondary wave directions, u is the predominant wave
direction, and S(w) is the point lwave spectrum, see Reference
13.
In applyingEquation (8), it is assumed that-energy is constant across direction bands equivalent to the increment across successive v's, and that it is constant for
all wave frequencies. The spreading function is generally applied to +90 degrees and at 15-degree increments from the predominant wave direction for the
wind-wave
spectrum. Table 2 provides the weights, W, that can be applied to achieve spreading of the Spectral components.S(L:J) dco (7)

The following are the most commonly used expressions using various combinations 1
of the moments in describing wave spectra, see Reference 12.
SPECTRAL PARAMETERIZATION
With regard to the estimation of the long-term wave data for design purposes, two factors which may seriously affect the magnitude of predicted values have to
be taken into consideration. These include the sea severities and sample size.
Calculations of extreme waves and ship response for long-term predictions and
fatigue analysis are also discussed in this section.
LONG-TERM WAVE HEIGHT EXCEEDANCES
Long-term prediction provides valuable wave data to evaluate the extreme ship
motion response expected to occur in the lifetime of a marine vehicle. It may also be used to evaluate the possible fatigue failure due to repeated loadings.
In connection with extreme load analysis, the 100 year return period of
significant wave height is generally used. Ftlr fatigue analysis, a return period is normally 10 years. In general, the 1-year return period is taken as the basis for accidental loads or damage analysis, see Reference 14.
Figure 5 provides the combined annual significant wave height by return period
for different ocean areas of the world. The maximum wave height corresponding to a
specific return period may be Obtained from this wave exceedance graph.
This.faci-iitates selecting a reasonable maximum design value and also helps in making
fati-gue calculations.
EXTREME VALUE
The most probable extreme value of a random process can be calculated by applying order statistics and the Weibull probability distribution to the wave
data, see Reference 15. Then, the largest value in the ordered sample, kn, with 'a return period factor R can be expressed as
kn
= e
(2.n BN)1/B ( 10 )B is the Weibull slope known as the slope factor and
e is
the scale parameter orcharacteristic value. B i8 dimensionless and e has the same units as kn. N is
the sample size. The return period factor R, defined as the average waiting
time between exceedances of the extreme value, is used as a safety factor to minimize the probability that the extreme value will exceed the predicted
predicted extreme value will be exceeded is 0.01, see'Reference
15.
If the samplesare sufficiently large, derivaiion of the Weibull parameters based on the mean and
the variance of the data set are simple to accomplish and can provide an objective
estimate of the parameters. Tie procedure for this method is as follows. The mean
value for the Weibull distribution can be defined as

Table 4 shows a comparison of actual and predicted extreme wave heights for
various ocean.areas over a 10 year period (R = I).- Also included
in
the table arethe predicted extreme Values for: R = 10, 25, 50 and 100. When the sample Size is
very large, i.e., North Pacific Ocean in Table
4;
the agreement between thepre-dicted and Observed extreme values
is
within 2 percent, On the other hand, for a. 1smaller sample size, such as Station India, the difference between the predicted
and actual extreme value for R is about 9 percent.
STRATIFIED SAMPLE
Unpublished work. by Outminsjat DTNSRDC defines a family of "stratified" directional wave spectra for the 'period
1959-69
that has been developed for the North Atlantic. -The primary stratification is with regard to significant wave height variations and the secondary is with regard to geographic location.Seasonal variations are also included in the resulting approximately 2000 spectra.
The wave height strata are 0 to 1, 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to
5, 5
to8,
and greater than8 meters. The Stratified Sample has no bias due to the fixed family shape of the
commonly applied idealized spectra. It provides an unbiased sample of directional spectra representative of all sea severities and North Atlantic Ocean areas. An
analogous data set is being constructed for the North Pacific.
WIND AND WAVE MODEL
AS wind data are generally available for many open and coastal ocean areas, the following method is developed in Reference 16 for deriving the probability distributions of significant wave height or modal wave period from wind speed
statistics. The procedure depends on the application of a two-parameter Weibull
distribution. In brief, given a wind speed distribution from any data source, a
o
corresponding significant wave height distribution or a modal wave period
'distribution can be developed. The procedure of this model is summarized by the following steps.
Using the appropriate a, b, c, and d values from Table 5 for Equations (14) and (15), determine B and 8 values for various wind speed intervals.
B = aB + cBW2 +
dB0

where B is the Weibull slope known aS the shape factor. e is called the scale

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
The .recommended use of this wind and wave data
is
by utilizinga
probabilistic approach to identifying the encountered environment of a maritime or naval mission!.Many ocean activities can benefit through ascertaining and understanding the geographic and time (season, annual) tpecific environmental conditions Which are
to be expected. Conversely, one can use the data to select a time and area with
the best likelihood of encountering a specified environmental condition. Ocean
activities which pay be enhanded'or in which the safety of operation may be enhanced include: .ship design, ship performance assessment, sea trials, naval
warfare Missions, offensive and defensive mining,, amphibious operations, and salvage/rescue activities. Each activity would utilize the atlas in the same rudimentary fashion but with activity-specific algorithms to find the best
fore-cast based on,c1,imatology.
I. Naval ship designers can follow four steps when applying wind and wave clima-,
tologies, as contained in this atlas toward improving the fleet.
Thoroughly define the mission of the ship and the limiting environmental factors, in Which the mission must be performed, at specIfied levels of efficiency
Identify the area(s) of operation.
Extract the percent of Occurrence of the limiting enviromental factors
from the appropriate time and area specific table. This can be done either
seasonally or annually.
TO Calculate ship response, derive the percent of time of successful, limited, and unsuccessful mission operation by using the percent frequencies of
occurrence of the environmental parameters. If the resultant percentages are
not
acceptable, the designer must fine:tune-the ship's hull configuration to meet the
desired operating envelope.
II. Wind and wave data can be used to assess how the environment may have been
a contributing factor in the failure or damage of a System, operation, or
equip-ment. Failure in this context refers to losses Which result from fatigue over a significant portion of the ship's lifespan and not to a specific single
environ-mental episode.
Identify the area( s) and season of operation prior to the "failure" of interest.
Identify the environmental conditions which, if exceeded (modal wave
period, significant wave height, wind speed), would probably cause the damage or
failure.
Derive the percent of occurrence of conditions exceeding those conditions
of step b above, for the operational areas and time.
III. Sea trial and naval Warfare planning can be enhanced. through the use of this
atlas by following a procedure of identifying areas of the ocean most likely to provoke the desired seaway and resulting Ship motions for a given time of year.
The first step is to define the seaway (upper and lower wave height
limits) best suited for specific tasks of the sea trial or mission. Identify the general geographic area of interest.
From the climatology, identify the time (season) which has acceptable probabilities of occurrence (e.g., 50 percent, 75 percent, 80 percent, etc.) of
encountering the desired wave heights. Probabilities of occurrence can be
extracted by area and time directly from Appendix A.
The basic underlying factor of each of the above uses is that one can obtain a good understanding of the general environmental conditions for a given time and
location prior to the commencement of an activity or mission at sea. Armed with
this knowledge one can have onboard contingency plans which will likely reduce mission reaction time in the event of encountering severe weather conditions as well as maximize mission effectiveness in all non-threatening environmental conditions'.
