The main stage of modern approach to the calculation of the wave climate includes creation of a database from hydrodynamic simulation. The input data for hindcasting are wind information, represented in the global reanalysis data. The reanalysis, especially for extreme wave statistics estimation should be subjected to correction with due regard of regional atmospheric processes. The specific of any basins requires prior adaptation of hydrodynamic models to particular conditions, results of which are checked by comparisons of model results with the data of field observations. The results of calculations based on hydrodynamic models are summarized using a set of stochastic models of various classes.
