Measuring the impact of observations on the predictability of the Kuroshio Extension in a shallow-water model [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper sequential importance sampling is used to assess the impact of observations on a ensemble prediction for the decadal path transitions of the Kuroshio Extension (KE). This particle filtering approach gives access to the probability density of

Design and comparative analysis of mooring systems for a combined wind and wave energy system at intermediate water depth

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science
For intermediate water depths (typically ranging from 50 m to 80 m), designing steel catenary mooring systems for floating marine renewable energy (FMRE) platforms can be challenging due to the limited weight of suspended mooring lines.

An implementation of Three-Dimensional Multi-Component Mooring Line Dynamics Model for Multi-Leg mooring line configuration

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract Multi-component mooring line (MCML) system is widely used and expected to be escalated for deep water mooring operation since it has several advantages comparing with conventional mooring line. The modelling of MCML involving its dynamic effects is strongly required to predict the dynamic behaviours of the mooring line precisely.

Biofouling Effects on the Response of a Wave Measurement Buoy in Deep Water [PDF]

, 2015
The effects of biofouling on a wave measurement buoy are examined using concurrent data collected with two Datawell Waveriders at Ocean Station P: one heavily biofouled at the end of a 26-month deployment, the other newly deployed and clean.
