Variability of the winter wind waves and swell in the North Atlantic and North Pacific as revealed by the Voluntary Observing Ship data [PDF]

, 2006
This paper analyses secular changes and interannual variability in the wind wave, swell, and significant wave height (SWH) characteristics over the North Atlantic and North Pacific on the basis of wind wave climatology derived from the visual wave ...

Significant Wave Height Estimation from Space-Borne Cyclone-GNSS Reflectometry

Remote Sensing, 2019
The significant wave height (SWH) of the sea is an important parameter and plays an important role in the prediction of waves and ocean dynamics. However, traditional methods, e.g., buoys or traditional remote sensing techniques such as X-band radar ...

The land–sea coastal border: a quantitative definition by considering the wind and wave conditions in a wave-dominated, micro-tidal environment [PDF]

, 2019
A quantitative definition for the land–sea (coastal) transitional area is proposed here for wave-driven areas, based on the variability and isotropy of met-ocean processes.

Prediction of the Severest Significant Wave Height

Coastal Engineering 1980, 1980
This paper presents a method to statistically estimate the severest sea state (significant wave height) from the observed data. For the estimation of extreme significant wave height, a precise representation of the data by a certain probability function is highly desirable.

Utilization of Wavewatch III Model Output Data for High Wave Analysis

Ilmu Kelautan, 2019
This study discusses the occurrence of extreme waves in North Sulawesi waters from 17 to 24 June 2016 using Wavewatch III (WW3) model output data with resolution 0.125o x 0.125o extracted from MIDAS-BMKG. The extracted WW3 data is mapped using ArcMap and

Propagation of waves over a rugged topography

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2022
The propagation of waves in shallow waters is affected by the bottom topography unlike deep water waves of the coastal environment. Due to the interaction of the wave with bed topography, the wave transformation processes occur.
