Ocean buoy observations are separated into geographical regions and compared to model output from the same locations and times for the last three years.
For the hindcast, a BA analysis is performed to estimate biases and random errors as a function of the wave heights, and the distribution of observed and modeled wave heights is produced. For forecasts, only bulk statistics are presented.
