This global dataset contains monthly, seasonal and annual statistics mean and maximum of significant wave height Hs that were produced using a statistical modelling approach and the 6-hourly sea level pressure SLP fields simulated by 20 global climate models participated in the Coupled Climate Model Comparison Phase 5 CMIP5 project for the historical period 1950-2005 and for two different future emission scenarios RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 .
