Abstract The drag coefficient under tropical cyclones and its dependence on sea states are investigated by combining upper-ocean current observations [using electromagnetic autonomous profiling explorer (EM-APEX) floats deployed five cyclones] a coupled ocean–wave (Modular Ocean Model 6–WAVEWATCH III) model. estimated averaged over all storms is around 2–3 × 10 −3 for wind speeds of 25–55 m s −...

A model-data inversion is applied to an extensive observational dataset collected in the Southern Ocean north of Ross Sea during late autumn early winter, producing estimates frequency-dependent rate dissipation by sea ice. The modeling platform WAVEWATCH III® which accounts for non-stationarity, advection, wave generation, and other relevant processes. resulting 9477 profiles are co-located wi...

Climate change has the potential to impact weather patterns that drive Queensland wave climate and increase intensity of extreme events such as tropical cyclones east coast lows, due a widening tropics. This will likely result in changing climate, an erosion subsequent coastal morphological throughout subtropics. Thus, it is important examine not only modal but also climate. While number hind-c...

Numerical wave models have been developed for the forecast in last two decades; however, it faces challenges terms of requirement large computing resources and improvement accuracy. Based on a convolutional long short-term memory (ConvLSTM) algorithm, this paper establishes two-dimensional (2D) significant height (SWH) prediction model South East China Seas trained by WaveWatch III (WW3) reanal...

Introduction: A team of NRL scientists from the Marine Meteorology and Oceanography Divisions has successfully transformed the one-way air–ocean Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS®*) into a six-way fully coupled air–ocean– wave weather and marine forecasting system. This was accomplished using the state-of-the-art Earth System Modeling Framework (ESMF), making COAMPS t...

Wave energy resource assessment is crucial for the development of marine renewable industry. High-frequency radars (HF radars) have been demonstrated to be a useful wave measuring tool. Therefore, in this work, we evaluated accuracy two CODAR Seasonde HF describing offshore areas west Galician coast, Spain (Vilán and Silleiro capes). The resulting characterization was used estimate electricity ...

For decades, the western North Pacific (WNP) has been commonly indicated as a region with high vulnerability to oceanic and atmospheric hazards. This phenomenon can be observed through general circulation model (GCM) output from Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP). The CMIP consists of collection ensemble data well marine surface winds for projection wave climate. Wave climate projecti...
