- Abstract
The paper presents results of research concerning meteorological and hydrological conditions in the storm related with the Xaver cyclone moving fast over the Baltic Sea. The analyses were based on remote sensing data from radars in Świdwin and Gdańsk-Rębiechowo and hydrometeorological data from direct measurements conducted at the coastal stations of the Polish Navy, marine stations of the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management, hydrometeorological station on the "Baltic Beta" oil rig and the Coastal Research Station of the Institute of Hydroengineering of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Lubiatowo. The assessment of the synoptic situation was made using surface weather charts, satellite images of cloud cover and meteorological radars products. The measurement data were used to analyze the surface and upper air wind fields for assessment of the hydrological situation (water condition, height and direction of the significant and maximum waves) and evaluation of threats to sea navigation and coastal infrastructure.
