Abstract

Metocean studies involve a lot of statistical analyses in the fields of data validation, determination of normal and extreme metocean conditions and data transformation. All these analyses can be performed in different ways. Deltares' best practice guidelines to execute metocean studies in an efficient and standardized way are summarized. Special attention is paid to the execution of extreme value analyses, for which procedures based on the extreme value theory are recommended.
