Wave power potential assessment of Aegean Sea with an integrated 15-year data
TLDR
In this article, wave power atlas is generated for the Aegean Sea for years from 1999 to 2013 using a third-generation spectral wave model MIKE 21 SW, which was then interpolated to 10-min interval data.About:

Net load variability in Nordic countries with a highly or fully renewable power system
Jon Olauson,Mohd Nasir Ayob,Mohd Nasir Ayob,Mikael Bergkvist,Nicole Carpman,Valeria Castellucci,Anders Goude,David Lingfors,Rafael Waters,Joakim Widén +9 more
TL;DR: Increasing the share of intermittent renewable energy (IRE) resources such as solar, wind, wave and tidal energy in a power system poses a challenge in terms of increased net load variability as discussed by the authors.

Marine Renewable Energy in the Mediterranean Sea: Status and Perspectives
Takvor H. Soukissian,Dimitra Denaxa,Flora Karathanasi,Aristides Prospathopoulos,Konstantinos Sarantakos,A. Iona,Konstantinos Georgantas,Spyridon A. Mavrakos +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extended overview of the marine renewable energy in the Mediterranean Sea is provided as regards current status, potential problems, challenges, and perspectives of development An integrated and holistic approach is necessary for the economic viability and sustainability of MARE projects; this approach comprises three different frameworks, not always aligned, i.e., geotechnical/engineering, socio-economic, and environmental/ecological frameworks.

Wave Energy Resource along the Coast of Santa Catarina (Brazil)
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential wave energy along the north-central coasts of Santa Catarina, in Southern Brazil, by analysis of the hindcast data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), was found to be equal to 15.25 kW/m, the bulk of which is provided by southeastern waves.

Spatiotemporal variability of the Black Sea wave climate in the last 37 years
B.V. Divinsky,R.D. Kosyan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of spatiotemporal variability of the Black Sea wave climate from 1979 to 2015 was performed based on mathematical modeling using the modern DHI MIKE 21 SW spectral wave model.

A third-generation wave model for coastal regions: 1. Model description and validation
TL;DR: In this article, a third-generation numerical wave model to compute random, short-crested waves in coastal regions with shallow water and ambient currents (Simulating Waves Nearshore (SWAN)) has been developed, implemented, and validated.

Triangle: Engineering a 2D Quality Mesh Generator and Delaunay Triangulator
TL;DR: Triangle as discussed by the authors is a robust implementation of two-dimensional constrained Delaunay triangulation and Ruppert's Delaunayer refinement algorithm for quality mesh generation, and it is shown that the problem of triangulating a planar straight line graph (PSLG) without introducing new small angles is impossible for some PSLGs.

The ECMWF Ensemble Prediction System: Methodology and validation
TL;DR: The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Ensemble Prediction System (EPS) is described in this article, where each ensemble comprises 32 10-day forecasts starting from initial conditions in which dynamically defined perturbations have been added to the operational analysis.

Energy loss and set-up due to breaking of random waves
J.A. Battjes,J.P.F.M. Janssen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model was developed for the prediction of the dissipation of energy in random waves breaking on a beach and the probability of occurrence of breaking waves was estimated on the basis of a wave height distribution with an upper cut-off which in shallow water is determined mainly by the local depth.
