The China Seas located at the Southeastern part of the large Eurasia continent, and beside the largest ocean, the Pacific. They are greatly influenced by continent and the ocean. Due to it across the tropical zone, the subtropical zone and the extropical zone, the cold and warm air circulation in Northsouth is a very active exchange. In the summer, the South China Sea and the East China Sea are frequently hit by typhoon waves. In spring and autumn, the bohai sea, the Yellow sea and the East China Seas had series disasters caused by the extropical cyclone wave and the cold air wave. In this paper the time-space distribution and formative cases of wave disaster in the China Seas, and the wave monitoring and prediction system, the wave prediction method, and two automatic systems of numerical wave forecasting are briefly introduced.
