Copula-Based Joint Probability and Return-Period Analysis of Wind–Wave Conditions for Offshore Wind Applications
Reliable characterization of dependent wind–wave extremes is essential for offshore wind engineering in monsoon- and tropical-cyclone-affected seas. Using a 2002–2020 COAWST hindcast for an offshore site in the northern South China Sea, we analyze 161,400 common-valid hourly samples of 10-m wind speed (U10), significan...
