Changes of Wind Waves in the North Atlantic over the last 30 years [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
In order to evaluate long-term climatic changes in wind wave height, visual wave estimates available from the Comprehensive Ocean–Atmosphere Data Set (GOADS) were updated for the period from 1964 to 1993.

The effects of tides on swash statistics on an intermediate beach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Swash hydrodynamics were investigated on an intermediate beach using runup data obtained from video images. Under mild, near-constant, offshore wave conditions, the presence of a sandbar and the tidally controlled water depth over its crest determined ...

Wave transformation across a macrotidal shore platform under low to moderate energy conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate how waves are transformed across a shore platform as this is a central question in rock coast geomorphology. We present results from deployment of three pressure transducers over four days, across a sloping, wide (~200 m) cliff-backed ...

Application of neural networks and support vector machine for significant wave height prediction

open access: yesOceanologia, 2017
For the purposes of planning and operation of maritime activities, information about wave height dynamics is of great importance. In the paper, real-time prediction of significant wave heights for the following 0.5–5.5 h is provided, using information ...

Effects of wave-current interaction on storm surge in the Taiwan Strait: Insights from Typhoon Morakot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The effects of wave-current interaction on storm surge are investigated by a two-dimensional wave-current coupling model through simulations of Typhoon Morakot in the Taiwan Strait. The results show that wind wave and slope of sea floor govern wave setup

Ocean wave mapping from ERS SAR images in the presence of swell and wind-waves

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2004
We present a method for estimating the significant wave height of ocean waves (SWH) in coastal zones from satellite SAR images and using the value of the width of the spectral azimuthal cutoff.

Extremal Prediction of Significant Wave Height

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1978, 1978
The most generally used procedure for estimating the extremal distribution of ge_o physical variates consists in obtaining a sample of extreme values (for instance a number of annual maxima) and fitting to them a distribution function. One of the main problems - involved in this procedure is the choice of the type of distribution adequate in each case.

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

open access: yes, 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.

Deformed SPDE models with an application to spatial modeling of significant wave height

open access: yes, 2019
A non-stationary Gaussian random field model is developed based on a combination of the stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) approach and the classical deformation method.
