Parametric Sensitivity Analysis of the WAVEWATCH III Model

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2009
The parameters in numerical wave models need to be calibrated be fore a model can be applied to a specific region. In this study, we selected the 8 most important parameters from the source term of the WAVEWATCH III model and subjected them to ...

Porting the WAVEWATCH III (v6.07) wave action source terms to GPU [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development, 2023
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
