Computations and Parameterizations of the Nonlinear Energy Transfer in a Gravity-Wave Spectrum. Part I: A New Method for Efficient Computations of the Exact Nonlinear Transfer Integral
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A more efficient method of computing the nonlinear transfer in a surface wave spectrum is developed which is symmetrical with respect to all wavenumbers of the resonant interaction quadruplets. This enables a large number ...
Computations of the Response of a Wave Spectrum to a Sudden Change in Wind Direction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The response of a wind-sea spectrum to a step function change in wind direction is investigated theoretically for a sequence of direction changes ranging from 30° to 180°, in increments of 30°. Two spectral energy balance ...
Computations and Parameterizations of the Nonlinear Energy Transfer in a Gravity-Wave Specturm. Part II: Parameterizations of the Nonlinear Energy Transfer for Application in Wave Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Four different parameterizations of the nonlinear energy transfer Snl in a surface wave spectrum are in investigated. Two parameterizations are based on a relatively small number of parameters and are useful primarily for ...
