On the Estimation of the Wave Energy Period and a Kernel Proposal for the Peru Basin

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The energy period is a crucial parameter needed for assessing wave energy. This parameter is regularly approximated using standard wave spectrums that do not always characterise an actual ocean region, even more if this region is far from the Northern ...

Influence of the NAO on the northwestern Mediterranean wave climate

Scientia Marina, 2010
This study examines teleconnections between the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the wave climate of the northwestern Mediterranean Sea (NWM), defined by the monthly mean significant wave height (SWH) and the 95th percentile significant wave height ...

The wave climate on the KwaZulu-Natal coast of South Africa

Journal of the South African Institution of Civil Engineers, 2012
The east coast of South Africa has been the subject of numerous coastal developments over recent years. The design of such developments requires a thorough analysis of the local wave climate.

Performance Evaluation of Wave Input Reduction Techniques for Modeling Inter-Annual Sandbar Dynamics

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
In process-based numerical models, reducing the amount of input parameters, known as input reduction (IR), is often required to reduce the computational effort of these models and to enable long-term, ensemble predictions.

Interannual Wave Climate Variability and Its Role in the Shoreline Evolution of a Barrier Island in Southeastern Brazil

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Sandy shorelines respond to variability in boundary conditions over a wide range of time and spatial scales. While recent studies show that climate modes may affect shoreline evolution at interannual scales, such relationships remain unclear in the South
