A database of "very high" and "phenomenal" sea states from the ESA Seastate CCI V4 database, with complements from CNES CFOSAT and SWOT nadir altimeters. Version 1 (not inter-calibrated)
This dataset contains all satellite altimeter wave heights above 9 m, from the following satellite missions: ERS-1, ERS-2, Topex-Poseidon (Topex only), Envisat, SARAL, Jason-1, Jason-2, Jason-3, Sentinel-3A, Sentinel-3B, Sentinel-6A, Cryosat-2, CFOSAT, SWOT. Storm event identification used the DetectHsStorm package developed by M. De Carlo and F. Ardhuin ( https://github.com/ardhuin/) . This data can be combined with modeled storm tracks (see F. Ardhuin, M. De Carlo, Storm tracks based on wave heights from LOPS WAVEWATCH III hindcast and ERA5 reanalysis, years 1991-2024, SEANOE (2025). doi: 10.17882/105148 )
