| Sumario: | The reanalysis of sea surface wind speed is compared with the measured wind speed of five offshore wind towers in Zhejiang, China. The applicability of reanalysis data in the Zhejiang coastal sea surface and the climatic characteristics of sea surface wind power density is analyzed. Results show that the reanalysis of wind field data at the height of 10 m can well capture the wind field characteristics of the actual sea surface wind field. The sea surface wind power density effective hours increases from west to east and north to south. Then Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) is used to analyze the sea surface wind power density anomaly field, and the first mode is a consistent pattern, the second mode is a North-South dipole pattern, the third mode is an East-West dipole pattern respectively. The stability of wind energy resources grows more stable with increasing distance from the coast, and the northern sea area which is far away from the coastal sea is more stable than that of the southern sea area. The yearly linear trend of sea surface wind power density is in an East-West dipole pattern respectively. The wind energy resources are more stable farther from the coast, and the wind energy resources in the northern sea are more stable than that of the southern sea. The yearly linear trend of sea surface wind power density is the East-West dipole type, the seasonal linear trend is a significant downward trend from West to East in spring, and on the contrary in summer, a non-significant trend in autumn and winter. The monthly change index shows that the linear trend near the entrance of Hangzhou Bay in Northern Zhejiang is of weak increase or decrease, which is good for wind energy development. When the wind power density is between 0 and 150 W·m−2, its frequency mainly shows the distribution trend of high in the West and low in the East, but the wind power density is between 150 and 600 W·m−2, its distribution is the opposite. |
