Twenty-first century wave climate projections for Ireland and surface winds in the North Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Science and Research, 2016
Ireland has a highly energetic wave and wind climate, and is therefore uniquely placed in terms of its ocean renewable energy resource. The socio-economic importance of the marine resource to Ireland makes it critical to quantify how the wave and wind ...

Assessment of Ocean Swell Height Observations from Sentinel-1A/B Wave Mode against Buoy In Situ and Modeling Hindcasts

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) in wave mode is a powerful tool for monitoring sea states in terms of long-period ocean swells of a specific wave directional partition. Since 2016, SARs aboard Sentinel-1A/B operating in wave mode have provided ocean swell

Enhancing Significant Wave Height Simulations Using Distribution‐Aware Deep Learning and Environmental Predictors

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Numerical wave models are widely used for wave forecasting and hindcast data set construction; however, their outputs frequently exhibit systematic biases stemming from uncertainties in wind forcing, physical parameterizations, and bathymetry. To address this issue, a deep learning–based bias correction approach is applied to significant wave ...

Evaluation of ADCP wave, WAVEWATCH III and HF radar data on the GBR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Wave climate can have a very significant impact on the dynamics of the near-coastal oceans, including geomorphology and currents. This study is a preliminary investigation of the suitability and compatibility of a wave-capable Acoustic Doppler Current ...

Influence of Computed Wave Spectra on Statistical Wave Properties

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The main goal of the paper is to compare the effects of the wave spectrum, computed using the Discrete Interaction Approximation (DIA) and the Webb–Resio–Tracy (WRT) methods, on statistical wave properties such as skewness and kurtosis in the context of ...

Impacts of Cross‐Shore Winds, Waves, and Sand Ridges on Inner Shelf Circulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Processes dominant on depth‐averaged subtidal flows at the surf zone and the inner shelf with sand ridges. The yellow layer indicates the sandy seafloor bathymetry; the oscillating dashed lines at the inner shelf indicates the sand ridges. Abstract Understanding of circulation on inner continental shelves needs to be advanced to accurately predict the ...

Coastal application of unstructured WAVEWATCH III in swell-dominated waters

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Spectral wave models are widely applied in wave hindcasting for scientific research and ocean engineering. In this study, the performance of Unstructured WAVEWATCH III (UNWWIII) in coastal shallow waters is evaluated against in-situ measurements and ...

10-Year Wind and Wave Energy Assessment in the North Indian Ocean

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
With increasing energy shortages and global warming, clean and renewable energy sources, such as wind and wave energy, have gained widespread attention. In this study, the third-generation wave model WAVEWATCH-III (WW3) is used to simulate wave height in

Applicability of WaveWatch-III wave model to fatigue assessment of offshore floating structures

open access: yes, 2016
In design and operation of floating offshore structures, one has to avoid fatigue failures caused by action of ocean waves. The aim of this paper is to investigate the applicability of WaveWatch-III wave model to fatigue assessment of offshore floating ...

Increasing Frequency of Coastal Erosion Indicated by a Hindcast Model of Storm‐Driven Forcing Calibrated With Beach Stratigraphy

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Beach stratigraphy at North Beach, Sandy Hook, New Jersey is used to calibrate a model of coastal erosion, establish a model‐based erosion threshold, and evaluate how often threshold conditions have been exceeded since 1979 through hindcast analysis.
