Summary | This research report presents research on four local harbors in Taiwan. By using data collection systems, wind, wave and current data are collected at sites offshore from Penghu, Putai, Matsu & Green Island. We set the statistical parameters of the data items to be analyzed. The analysis results showed the following average wind speeds: Penghu, 5.1m/s; Putai Port, 4.7m/s; Matsu Port, 3.3m/s; Green Island, 3.0m/s. Average wave heights were as follows: Penghu, 0.57m; Putai Port, 0.54m; Matsu Port, 0.53m; Green Island, 0.54m. Average current speeds were: Penghu, 24.8cm/s; Putai Port, 26.7cm/s; Matsu Port, 19.9cm/s; and Green Island, 19.0cm/s. The observation data collected over the years are provided to government and research units for further application. We have established a long-term port and sea weather observation website and database systems, which will assist in providing vessel traffic management systems of the various port authorities with urgently-needed sea weather information. |
