TLDR
In this paper, a four-parameter theoretical formulation was proposed to represent double-peaked spectra and was shown to provide an excellent fit to measured spectra, and the average values of the spectral parameters describing the two peaks did not show any clear dependence on significant wave height.About:

Assessment of wave energy resources in Hawaii
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors implemented a nested computational grid along the major Hawaiian Islands in the global WaveWatch3 (WW3) model and utilized the Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model to provide high-resolution mesoscale wind forcing over the Hawaii region.

Further analysis of change in nearshore wave climate due to an offshore wave farm: An enhanced case study for the Wave Hub site
TL;DR: In this paper, a modification of the SWAN source code is described to enable frequency-dependent wave energy transmission through a barrier, with a particular focus on the occurrence of bimodal sea states.

On the occurence of double peaked wave spectra
TL;DR: In this article, a regression equation is derived which predicts the probability of occurrence of double peaked spectra in open areas of the North Atlantic and North Sea for sea states higher than 3-4 m.

TL;DR: In this article, wave spectra were measured along a profile extending 160 kilometers into the North Sea westward from Sylt for a period of two weeks in 1968 and 1969, with particular emphasis on wave growth under stationary offshore wind conditions and the attenuation of swell in water of finite depth.

A proposed spectral form for fully developed wind seas based on the similarity theory of S. A. Kitaigorodskii
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the data for the spectra of fully developed seas obtained for wind speeds from 20 to 40 knots as measured by anemometers on two weather ships.

The equilibrium range in the spectrum of wind-generated waves
TL;DR: For large values of the frequency ω, the spectrum Φ(ω) is of the form φ( π( φ) √ g^2\omega^{-5}$ where α is an absolute constant as discussed by the authors, which is consistent with the observed occurrence of sharp crests in a well developed sea.

A parametric wave prediction model
TL;DR: In this paper, the shape invariance of the spectral shape is exploited in a wave prediction model by projecting the full transport equation for the two-dimensional spectral continuum onto two variables characterizing the energy and frequency scales of the spectrum.
