روش مناسب جداسازی انرژی امواج محلی از امواج دورآ در طیف فرکانسی موج

Wave models or two-dimensional measurements of wave spectrum, determine the distribution of wave energy over frequency and different directions. However most of spectrum measurements are not directional. In this study, we are planning to determine how much energy in waves comes from storms taken place in distant areas and old waves have reached the study areas (swells), and how much energy is f...

Persistency of ocean swell fields observed from space

Using global satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) observations, swell systems are confirmed to travel over very large distances across ocean basins. To yield global and almost continuous coverage of these very well organized wave systems emanating from the different intense storms, a geometrical optics approach is applied. The data are gathered globally and systematically, but the SAR-deriv...

Persistency of ocean swell fields observed from space Fabrice

Using global satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) observations, swell systems are confirmed to travel over very large distances across ocean basins. Satellite observations can provide a global view of swell systems when using a specific ”wave mode” sampling. The data are gathered globally and systematically, but the SAR-derived peak wavelength and directional parameters are restricted to th...

Routine monitoring and analysis of ocean swell fields using a spaceborne SAR

Satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) observations can provide a global view of ocean swell fields when using a specific ”wave mode” sampling. A methodology is presented to routinely derive integral properties of the longer wavelength (swell) portion of the wave spectrum from SAR Level 2 products, and both monitor and predict their evolution across ocean basins. SAR-derived estimates of swel...

Refraction of swell by surface currents

Using recordings of swell from pitch-and-roll buoys, we have reproduced the classic observations of long-range surface wave propagation originally made by Munk et al. (1963) using a triangular array of bottom pressure measurements. In the modern data, the direction of the incoming swell fluctuates by about ±10 ◦ on a time scale of one hour. But if the incoming direction is averaged over the dur...
