| Abstract | ||
| Historically, wind waves data that covers the north west of the Arabian Gulf has been poor. The Demirbilek and Coworkers (1993) method is used to hindcast the significant wave height on a fully developed sea and period for the duration from1960 to1990 in the north west of the Arabian Gulf .The data of wind speed has been observed at 10 m over sea surface and gathered by Abadan station. Results show that the higher wave height , period ,friction velocity , drag coefficient and wind stress are in Summer (June-September) season in the duration from 1960 to1990 and the manner of increasing is in parallel with wind speed .The higher wind speed gives more energy transfer from the wind to the sea surface. | ||
