Evaluation of Spectral Wave Models Physics as Applied to a 100‐Year Southern Hemisphere Extra‐Tropical Cyclone Sea State

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 128, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Extreme significant wave height estimates, and their probability of exceedance, are fundamental offshore and coastal engineering design parameters. These estimates are characterized by uncertainty due to an incomplete understanding of the atmosphere‐ocean energy and momentum exchanges during intense storms.

Modulation Effects of Mesoscale Eddies on Sea Surface Wave Fields in the South China Sea Derived From a Wave Spectrometer Onboard the China‐France Ocean Satellite

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 128, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract This study aims to examine the modulation effects of mesoscale eddies on sea surface wave fields in the South China Sea using data measured by a wave spectrometer named Surface Wave Investigation and Monitoring onboard the China‐France Ocean Satellite from July 2019 to August 2021. The statistical results show that the significant wave heights

Wave Field Properties in Tropical Cyclones From the Spectral Observation of the CFOSAT/SWIM Spaceborne Instrument

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 128, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) are extreme events that generate, because of their movement, complex wave fields. The Surface Wave Investigation and Monitoring (SWIM) instrument is a real aperture radar that provides unprecedented detailed information about the waves with dominant wavelength between 70 and 500 m in all directions at the global scale ...
