KARAKTERISTIK GELOMBANG SIGNIFIKAN DI SELAT KARIMATA DAN LAUT JAWA BERDASARKAN RERATA ANGIN 9 TAHUNAN (2005-2013)
ABSTRACT: Karimata strait and
the java sea is one of the most densely shipping lanes in the maritime country
of Indonesia. Information of a significant wave is needed to safety navigation.
The prediction of a significant wave mostly employs the modeling using wind as
input data to produce an early warning warning prediction. Characteristic of a
significant wave shows the maximum wave height in the strait and the java sea
karimata occurs in west monsoon (January) and east season (August) every year. Especially
at the peak of west monsoon (January) maximum wave height reach 1.5-3 meters in
Karimata Strait, and reach 0.5-2.5 meters in Java Sea. The frequency of
significant wave occurencesmostly extend until February, where wave height in
Java Sea will stay the same (0.5-2.5 meters),while in Karimata Strait is little
bit decrease (1-2.5 meters). Recommended to all sea transportation users, in
those regions during January and February, to avoid using ship with the hull is
less than 3 meters height.
