Assimilation of ocean wave spectra and atmospheric circulation patterns to improve wave modelling
Description: The modelling of waves associated with extreme events is fundamental to coastal engineering design and coastal vulnerability assessments. The storm systems that drive extreme wave events are associated with specific atmospheric circulation patterns (CPs). In this paper the link between these circulation patterns and wave spectra is explored as a means to improve wave modelling in engineering applications. [Source: Coastal Engineering]
