Short summary
This paper investigates the treatment of tropical-cyclone-generated waves in metocean models and in statistical evaluation for offshore wind design. It provides recommendations for ensuring the accurate representation of extreme waves for the design and operation of offshore projects on the Atlantic coast of the United States.
