Freak waves are both extremely large and highly transient time. Such a wave may lead to damage of ships deaths. In this paper, describe the connection between freak essential factor, we use WAVEWATCH III model simulating “New Year Wave” in North Sea explore wave, with importing ECMWF re-analysis wind field. By way, successfully simulate formation random wave. Analysis shows steepness small dire...

Three typhoons, Meranti, Malakas, and Megi, occurred successively in eastern Taiwanese waters September 2016, causing extreme waves (significant wave height > 10.0 m), these events were selected to investigate the effect of model grid resolution wave–wave interaction on simulating typhoon-driven waves. The WAVEWATCH III (WW3) model, with 0.50 deg, 0.25 0.20 0.10 0.05 deg resolutions, two rea...

The influence of small-scale processes at the ocean–atmosphere boundary layer such as spray and foam on surface waves prediction is studied. Estimates effect including exact number specific fragmentation “parachute” type in resulting drag coefficient shown. For estimates, numerical simulations within WAVEWATCH III wave model are performed. parameterizations wind input tested model: default ST4 ...

A regional wave forecasting system in East Asia, including the Korean Peninsula, was built based on WAVEWATCH III using offshore wind forecast data from Global Data Assimilation Prediction System. The numerical simulations were performed sensitivity of interaction between input and development. forecasts for each condition compared verified with observational marine meteorological buoys 1 Augus...

Abstract. Wind-wave processes have generally been excluded from coupled Earth system models due to the high computational expense of spectral wave models, which resolve a frequency and direction spectrum waves across space time. Existing uniform-resolution modeling approaches used in cannot appropriately represent climates global coastal ocean scales, largely because tradeoffs between resolutio...
