Abstract: Geostrophic and surface air and water drag on sea ice are presented for rough, smooth and transitional smooth‐to‐rough turbulent flow in a neutrally stable boundary layer. The geostrophic drag coefficient

Abstract: This paper considers the effect of wave age on wind gust spectra over wind waves. Here, two wind gust spectra based on maritime data are used to serve the purpose of demonstrating the effect ...

Abstract: The paper considers the effects of sea roughness and atmospheric stability on the sea surface wind stress over waves, which are in local equilibrium with the wind, by using the logarithmic ...

Abstract: Myrhaug and Slaattelid 1 (hereafter referred to as MS) considered the effects of sea roughness and atmospheric stability on the sea surface wind stress over waves, which are in local equilibrium ...

Abstract: The spectrum of seabed shear stresses at beds with large roughness beneath ocean surface waves in finite water depth is derived by using the wave friction factor for large roughness. It is ...

Abstract: Estimates for encounter probabilities of occurrence of steep and high waves in deep water for given sea states by using two different parametric models for the joint distribution of crest front steepness and wave height ...

Abstract: The probability that a wave crest in a random sea will exceed a specified height has long been recognized as important statistics in practical work, e.g., in predicting green water load and ...

Abstract: Statistical information about the joint occurrence of metocean parameters is of importance for many offshore activities. For instance, in marine operations, environmental limitations may be brought ...
