Impact of changes in sea ice cover on the wave climate of semi-enclosed, seasonally ice-covered water bodies at temperate latitudes: a case study in the Gulf of Riga

We analyse potential changes in the average and cumulative properties of wind waves owing to the loss of sea ice in regions that are currently seasonally ice-covered. The focus is on the Gulf of Riga, located in the eastern Baltic Sea at higher temperate latitudes. This water body is almost isolated...
