Abstract: The capability of phased-array HF radar systems to sample the spatial distribution of wave energy is investigated in different storm scenarios and coastal configurations. First, a formulation introduced by D. E. Barrick ...

Abstract: pectral wave parameters from 11 platforms, measured during the recent Impact of Typhoons on the Ocean in the Pacific (ITOP) experiment, are intercompared. Two moorings, separated by ~180 km, were deployed in a section of ...

Abstract: ne of the scientific objectives of the U.S. Office of Naval Research?sponsored Impact of Typhoons on the Ocean in the Pacific (ITOP) campaign was improved understanding of air?sea fluxes at high wind speeds. Here the authors ...

Abstract: Wave-height observations derived from single-site high-frequency (HF) radar backscattered Doppler spectra are generally recognized to be less accurate than overlapping radar techniques but can provide significantly larger ...
