Modeling Swell, High Frequency Spreading and Wave Breaking
I wish to develop the phenomenological diffusion model of interaction of gravitational waves on water surface in presence of wind and viscosity. Motivation for development of such a model is the fact that numerical solvers based on Hasselmann kinetic equation for waves are time-consuming and hardly can be used for practical purposes. Numerical solver based on the diffusion model is expected to ...
متن کاملIonosphere Probing with a High Frequency Surface Wave Radar
This paper describes how the ionosphere reflected echoes observed by a high frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR) can be processed to extract information regarding the ionosphere sporadic E (Es) and F2 layers. It is shown that the range/time spectrum contains the data to estimate the occurring time and virtual heights of both the still and drifting Es layer clouds. In addition, for the drifting ...
متن کاملModeling the Antenna Configuration of a Digital Very-High Frequency (VHF) Direction Finding System
The U.S. Coast Guard Academy (USCGA) has developed a prototype Digital Very High Frequency super-heterodyne Direction Finding system (DVHF-DF) in support of the U.S. Coast Guard's National Distress Response System Modernization Project (NDRSMP). This receiver, which processes four independent channels of in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) data, offers significant advantages over more conventional ...
متن کاملVery High-Frequency Radar Mapping of Surface Currents
An ocean surface current radar (OSCR) in the very high frequency (VHF) mode was deployed in South Florida Ocean Measurement Center (SFOMC) during the summer of 1999. During this period, a 29-d continuous time series of vector surface currents was acquired starting on 9 July 1999 and ending 7 August 1999. Over a 20-min sample interval, the VHF radar mapped coastal ocean currents over a 7.5 km 8 ...
متن کامل11.4 Wind Stress and Wind Wave Observations in the Presence of Swell
The questions of how wind and ocean waves interact and how this coupling should be parameterized to optimally derive the surface wind stress remain open and central to estimating air-sea coupling at the global and local scales. While much attention has been given to evaluating the effect of the wind-driven waves upon the surface wind stress and air-sea drag coefficient, less emphasis has been g...
