1 Wave Energy Resources Assessment for the China Sea Based on AVISO Altimeter and ERA Reanalysis Data (ID:4) Junmin Meng, Jie Zhang First Institute of Oceanography, State Oceanic Administration, Qingdao, China Yong Wan College of Information and Control Engineering, China University of Petroleum, Qingdao, China Collard Fabrice CLS.FRANCE.

2 Research Progress. Mean wave period inversion based on AVISO altimeter data. Wave energy assessment for the China Sea based on AVISO altimeter data. Wave power density calculation for shallow water 4. Wave energy assessment for nearshore areas of the China Sea. Planning research

3 . Mean wave period inversion based on AVISO altimeter data Data material and verification Data name Data sources Data Coverage AVISO multi-satellite merged altimeter data CNES & CLS ºN-4N, ºE-9ºE Data Type gridded data Date-Time Time resolution 4h Spatial resolution * Parameters significant wave height (H s ) wind speed (U )

4 4. AVISO buoy_6. Hs/m number of collocated data 4. AVISO buoy_py-. Hs/m number of collocated data RMSE of H s is.6m and.m.

5 Mean wave period inversion Wave height and mean wave period are key parameters for wave energy assessment. Mean wave period can not provided directly by AVISO data. So we established models to calculate mean wave period by wave height and wind speed. Polynomial model (QP_AVISO_model) gt gh = + z n s i.44 a = i( ) i πu U C Input dataset:aviso significant wave height and wind speed Output dataset:era-interim mean wave period(true value)

6 Polynomial subsection model (PQP_AVISO_model) According to significant wave height subsection, many polynomial models were established for each subsection. BP Neural network model (MWP_NN_model) A BP neural network model was established with input nondimensional wave height and output wave age.

7 Comparison for different models Model RMSE (s) QP_AVISO_model.7 PQP AVISO model.86 MWP_NN_model. H98_model.74 Miao_QP_model.6 Miao_PQP_model.9

12 Theoretical annual mean P w Exploitable annual mean P w Wave energy exploitable ratio

13 x Theorectial total wave energy Exploitable total wave energy Total wave energy/j Theoretical wave energy COV Exploitable wave energy COV annual winter spring summer autumn Period Comparison of total wave energy

14 . Wave power density calculation for shallow water In shallow water, when calculating P w we must consider water depth and some coastal influence to improve the accuracy of P w. A novel high order parametric model was established to calculate P w in shallow water based on MASNUM wave model. PP ww = HH ss TT ee HH ss TT ee +. 4 HH ss TT ee +.6 HH ss TT ee +.7 Model Bias/kw/m RMSE/kw/m CC Empirical Model High Order Parametric Model
