Abstract
 We compare the calculated characteristics of the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) and the previous model, we examined the applicability of WRF to the study of design offshore wave. As a result, we have confirmed that WRF is useful as a new sea surface wind estimation model. Further, we have confirmed the usefulness of the SWAN as a model alternative to wave transformation calculations based on energy balance equation method.
