Ocean Wave Prediction Using Numerical and Neural Network Models
This paper presents an overview of the development of the numerical wave prediction models and recently used neural networks for ocean wave hindcasting and forecasting. The numerical wave models express the physical concepts of the phenomena. The performance of the numerical wave model depends on how best the phenomena are expressed into the numerical schemes, so that more accurate wave paramet...
متن کاملForecasting wave height probabilities with numerical weather prediction models
Operational weather forecasts now allow two week probabilistic forecasts of wave height. This paper discusses methods for generating such forecasts from numerical model output from the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting Ensemble Prediction System. The ECMWF system produces Monte Carlo style forecasts of wave statistics out to a lead time of 10 days. This ensemble of forecasts ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Two Numerical Wave Models with Inlet Physical Model
This paper evaluates the performance of two numerical wave models, GHOST and STWAVE, with measurements made in an idealized inlet physical model. The emphasis of this paper is on the overall performance of these models in coastal inlets. Both wave models are similar in that they employ a finite-difference method to solve the wave action conservation equation for the steady-state wave spectral t...
متن کاملEffect of wave frequency and directional spread on shoreline runup
[1] Wave breaking across the surf zone elevates the mean water level at the shoreline (setup), and drives fluctuations about the mean (runup). Runup often is divided into seaswell (0.04–0.3 Hz) and lower frequency infragravity (0.00– 0.04 Hz) components. With energetic incident waves, runup is dominated by infragravity frequencies, and total water levels (combined setup and runup) can exceed 3 ...
متن کاملDirectional Effects on Freak Wave Prediction
The last decade freak waves have become an important topic in engineering and science. The freak waves are sometimes featured by a single and steep crest causing severe damage to structures and ships. The freak wave studies started in the late 80’s and the high-order nonlinear effects on the freak waves were discussed in the early 90’s (i.e.Yasuda et al., 1992). Owing to the many research effor...
