Evaluate changes in wind wave height at different return periods and statistical distribution
Waves are main characteristics of seas that produce by wind. Importance of the study of waves and recognizing the wave climate in the coastal zone management that the waves are the most important influence on the design and implementation of all projects. Wave are main boundary condition in dynamic loading and structural calculations and hydraulic coastal structures. Height of waves are the mos...
متن کاملWave Group Forcing of Low Frequency Surf Zone Motion
The nearshore potential vorticity balance of Bowen and Holman (1989) is expanded to include the forcing from wave group-induced radiation stresses. Model results suggest that the forcing from these radiation stresses can drive oscillations in the longshore current that have a spatial structure similar to linear shear instabilities of the longshore current. In addition, the forced response is ne...
متن کاملSurf Zone Wave Breaking Identification Using Marine Radar
This paper presents a novel combination of synchronous, large coverage marine radar, calibrated pulsed Doppler radar, and video remote sensing observations from a nearshore field site. The data enable the analysis of the evolution and characteristics of the remotely observed signals from surf zone waves. The combination of different remote sensors allows a better discrimination between breaking...
متن کاملOn the Choice of Random Wave Simulation in the Surf Zone Processes
In this paper, the two common approaches to account for wave randomness, the spectral approach and the wave-bywave approach, are compared through numerical experiments conducted with the coupling of a surf zone hydrodynamic model and a bedload sediment transport model. Special attention is paid to the wave nonlinearity and net cross-shore bedload transport predictions. The two approaches are fo...
متن کاملQuantification of Two-Dimensional Wave Breaking Dissipation in the Surf Zone from Remote Sensing Data
A method for obtaining two dimensional fields of wave breaking energy dissipation in the surfzone is presented. The method relies on acquiring geometrical parameters of the wave roller from remote sensing data. These parameters are then coupled with a dissipation model to obtain time averaged two dimensional maps, but also the wave breaking energy dissipation on a wave-by-wave basis. Comparison...
