Abstract

Surface gravity waves retrieved by a network of HF radars and an in situ wave measurement were used to carry out a multiple year characterization of the wave field of the Gulf of Naples. The patterns of the wave fields were in agreement with the wave climatology of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The results highlighted seasonal and interannual consistency in the wave characteristics for a given site, and support the potential of these systems as long-term observatories.
