The satellite altimeter provides an efficient way for realt-ime monitoring global and regionalocea-nographic parameters.The TOPEX satellite altimeter has provided the synchronously observed data of the global sea surface wind speed and significant wave height (SWH),so far,these data have the longest time series and the best data quality.The data of the SWH and the wind speed over the surrounding waters of Taiwan Island are compared with the data from the TOPEX satellite altimeter,and the validity is analyzed from the TOPEX satellite altimeter data.Meanwhile,the characteristics of the SWH which is greater than or equal to 4 m over the surrounding waters of Taiwan Island is analyzed.It is shown that the large waves commonly appear in winter and autumn every year,and the maximum of the mean SWH often appears in summer,but it is opposite in spring.When the SWH is greater than or equal to 6 m,it appears in the surrounding waters of the east or northeast of Taiwan Island,and it less appears in the surrounding waters of the south of Taiwan Island.
