Wind and Sea Breeze Characteristics for the Offshore Wind Farms in the Central Coastal Area of Taiwan

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Renewable energy is crucial for achieving net zero emissions. Taiwan has abundant wind resources and most major wind farms are offshore over the Taiwan Strait due to a lack of space on land.

Atmospheric forcing of sea ice anomalies in the Ross Sea polynya region [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2017
We investigate the impacts of strong wind events on the sea ice concentration within the Ross Sea polynya (RSP), which may have consequences on sea ice formation.

Seasonal Variability of Wind Sea and Swell Waves Climate along the Canary Current: The Local Wind Effect

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018
A climatology of wind sea and swell waves along the Canary eastern boundary current area, from west Iberia to Mauritania, is presented. The study is based on the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis ERA-Interim.

Co-existence of wind seas and swells along the west coast of India during non-monsoon season [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2013
An attempt has been made to understand the co-existence of wind seas and swells along the west coast of India during non-monsoon season. Wave data were collected in different years during non-monsoon season (off Goa during May 2005, off Ratnagiri during ...

Derivation of Sea Surface Wind Directions from TerraSAR-X Data Using the Local Gradient Method

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2016
Derivation of sea surface wind direction is a key step of sea surface wind retrieval from spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data. This technical note describes an implementation of the Local Gradient (LG) method to derive sea surface wind ...

Seasonal Variability of Waves Within the Indonesian Seas and Its Relation With the Monsoon Wind

open access: yesIlmu Kelautan, 2021
The previous studies have simulated the variability of the wave within the Indonesian seas which showed that the variability of wave follows the seasonal pattern. However, their analysis only consider the influence of local wind forcings.

A Wind–Wave-Dependent Sea Spray Volume Flux Model Based on Field Experiments

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Sea spray can contribute significantly to the exchanges of heat and momentum across the air–sea interface. However, while critical, sea spray physics are typically not included in operational atmospheric and oceanic models due to large uncertainties in ...

The impact of waves and sea spray on modelling storm track and development

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2015
In high wind speed conditions, sea spray generated by intensely breaking waves greatly influences the wind stress and heat fluxes. Measurements indicate that the drag coefficient decreases at high wind speeds. The sea spray generation function (SSGF), an
