Rapid Changes in Ocean Surface Waves Across the Eye of Hurricane Milton (2024)

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Two wave buoys deployed in the direct path of Hurricane Milton show a remarkable reduction in significant wave height and peak wave period as the eye of the storm passes and wind speeds are briefly reduced. The rapid adjustment of the waves to the lower wind speeds is initially unexpected, but is explained by the observed changes in the scalar

Study of the Optimal Grid Resolution and Effect of Wave–Wave Interaction during Simulation of Extreme Waves Induced by Three Ensuing Typhoons

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Three typhoons, Meranti, Malakas, and Megi, occurred successively in eastern Taiwanese waters in September 2016, causing extreme waves (significant wave height > 10.0 m), and these events were selected to investigate the effect of model grid resolution ...

Accessibility and Serviceability Assessment to Inform Offshore Wind Energy Development and Operations off the US East Coast

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The economic success of offshore wind energy projects relies on accurate projections of the construction and operations and maintenance (O&M) costs. These projections must consider the logistical complexities introduced by adverse met‐ocean conditions that can prohibit access to the offshore assets for sustained periods of time.

Porting the WAVEWATCH III (v6.07) Wave Action Source Terms to GPU

, 2022
Abstract. Surface gravity waves play a critical role in several processes, including mixing, coastal inundation and surface fluxes. Despite the growing literature on the importance of ocean surface waves, wind-wave processes have traditionally been excluded from Earth system models due to the high computational costs of running spectral wave models ...

Assessment of Future Nonstationary Changes in Extreme Sea Levels Considering Climate Change for Southeast Asia Using High‐Resolution Climate Forcing

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the projected nonstationary behavior of extreme total water levels (ETWL) and extreme coastal water levels (ECWL) along the Southeast Asian coastline under the high‐emission climate scenario. Using a high‐resolution seamless projection data set of storm surge and ocean waves forced by MRI‐AGCM3.2, combined with regional

WAVEWATCH-III source terms evaluation for optimizing hurricane wave modeling: A case study of Hurricane Ivan

Oceanologia, 2021
Simulating hurricane-generated waves is a challenging task due to rapidly fluctuating wind speed and direction, simultaneous presence of swells propagating out of the previous location of the hurricane and following/opposing waves on either side of the ...

On the Influence of Currents and Grain Size on Wave Orbital Motion Scaling Dependence of Sand Ripple Geometry

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Using field observations from the MEGAPEX and Coastal Genesis 2.0 (CG2‐DVT2) campaigns along the Dutch coast, along with laboratory data from the DUNE3 experiment, we examine how ripple geometry responds to variations in orbital diameter, sediment grain size, and current forcing. Results show that ripple wavelength follows a weakly superlinear

Spring‐Summer Temperature Balances and Recent Surface Maxima on the Southern Bering Sea Middle Shelf

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The eastern Bering Sea has recently experienced multiple years of pronounced warm temperature anomalies, facilitated by low winter sea‐ice extent. Although ice cover is well‐understood as a driver of temperature variations in this region, the ability for spring and summer forcing to modify anomalies present after ice retreat has been less ...
