Abstract
A statistical model of global wave height analysis was developed based on the JRA-55 reanalysis data and applied to future projections of wave climate change under several future scenarios. Mean and extreme wave heights were estimated globally using the statistical wave model. The estimated mean wave heights in future climates show increase in the Northwestern Pacific and decrease in the Northestern Pacific, middle latitude and around the equator. The estimated extreme wave heights in future climates shows different trends from mean one depending on the future greenhouse gas emission scenarios.
