Internal Tides in the Strait of Gibraltar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analysis of moored current measurements in the Strait of Gibraltar is provided here. The vertical internal displacements (double amplitudes) with a semidiurnal frequency are extremely large and sometimes exceed 200 m. It ...
Bimodality of Directional Distributions in Ocean Wave Spectra: A Comparison of Data-Adaptive Estimation Techniques
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe properties of directional distributions in ocean wave spectra are studied, with an emphasis on sea states with bimodal directional distributions in the high-frequency tails of single-peaked wave systems. A ...
Consistency between Sea Surface Reconstructions from Nautical X-Band Radar Doppler and Amplitude Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study comprises the analysis and the interpretation of the coherent and the noncoherent parts of a coherent-on-receive microwave radar at grazing incidence conditions. The Doppler measurement is an extension ...
Modulational Instability and Rogue Waves in Crossing Sea States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWave statistical properties and occurrence of extreme and rogue waves in crossing sea states are investigated. Compared to previous studies a more extensive set of crossing sea states are investigated, both with ...
