Wind forcing effect on hindcasting of typhoon-driven extreme waves

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the performance of wave height forecasting for typhoon-generated significant wave heights (SWHs) on the northeastern coast of Taiwan using different wind fields and a fully coupled tide-surge wave model.

Numerical Simulation of Wind and Wave Fields for Coastal Slender Bridges

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a numerical scheme to simulate the nonstationary wind and wave fields around a coastal slender bridge during hurricane events that also can be used in bridge-wind-wave (BWW) system dynamic analyses.

Synergy of wind wave model simulations and satellite observations during extreme events

TL;DR: In this article, the wave data provided by the new Sentinel-3A satellite is evaluated and the sensitivity of the wave model to wind forcing is tested using data with different temporal and spatialresolution, such as ERA-Interim and ERA5 reanalyses, the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) operational analysis and short-range forecast, German Weather Service (DWD) forecasts and regional atmospheric model simulations (coastDat).

Numerical Simulation of Sea Surface Directional Wave Spectra under Hurricane Wind Forcing

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical simulation of sea surface directional wave spectra under hurricane wind forcing was carried out using a high-resolution wave model for four days as Hurricane Bonnie (1998) approached the U.S. East Coast.

Treatment of unresolved islands and ice in wind wave models

TL;DR: In this paper, a method based on a technique used in the SWAN model to deal with unresolved islands is presented, which is tested in the operational global WAVEWATCH III model of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction with a one year hindcast, and results show a local but dramatic impact on model errors.

Numerical modelling to estimate the spatial distribution of the wave energy in the Portuguese nearshore

TL;DR: In this article, the wave energy spatial distribution in the Portuguese nearshore is analyzed based on buoy measurements covering the 10-year period 1994-2003, and a wave prediction system based on two state-of-the-art spectral models, WAM and SWAN, was used to evaluate the wave conditions.
