The wave forecast we check on the web nowadays rely on the description of wave processes thorugh a software called spectral wave model. Being able to represent a wide range of physical process, spectral wave models are particularly suited for wave forecasting. Moreover they run with a reasonable computational cost. Nevertheless, we know or at […]
As marine sports-people, we regularly check specialized websites to have a clue about the evolution of sea conditions in the next days. Nowadays, almost all the wave forecasts available are based on spectral wave models (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_wave_model). The final product provided by websites is made up of relevant parameters: for instance wave height, period and direction. […]
Now and then – The Evolution of chasing swells Last week I wrote few lines about what pushed me to start chasing swells. My journey started 30 years ago. If you were a storm chaser in the ’90 you probably experienced a fair number of failed trips to the sea. No internet, no detailed forecast […]
looks like Sardinia is made for you then, just don't expect (...)
