In the present study, the occurrence frequency of extreme wind speed over the Black Sea surface is analysed, aiming to assess the differences between simulated and observed characteristics under present climate (2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009) and to investigate the near term projected changes (2011-2040 vs. 1961-2000) of this indicator in the context of A1B scenario. We use observational data provided by measurements at meteorological stations on Romanian coast and satelli
