Abstract
Remote sensing data have been used to analyze relations between extreme wave events during heavy storms, cloud formation and local wind gustiness. This study proofs the hypothesis that the variability in height and length for wave groups and the probability for individual high waves can be caused by travelling mesoscale organized gusts detected. A possibility to reconstruct the extreme events using conventional spectral wave models by implementing the organized gusts into a frequently updated wind field with properties derived from remote sensing information is demonstrated. © 2012 IEEE.
