A Comparison of Beamforming and Direction Finding Algorithms (Beamscan and MUSIC) on a Linear Array HF Radar in a Medium to Low Wave Energy Environment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Response of a Coastal Plume Formed by Tidally Modulated Estuarine Outflow to Light Upwelling-Favorable Wind
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study presents observations of a buoyant plume off Winyah Bay, South Carolina, which was formed under conditions of high freshwater discharge and upwelling-favorable wind forcing. Analysis of observations demonstrates ...
Swell and Wind Wave Inversion Using a Single Very High Frequency (VHF) Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA hybrid, empirical radar wave inversion technique that treats swell and wind waves separately is presented and evaluated using a single 48-MHz radar unit and in situ wave measurements. This hybrid approach greatly ...
Shelf Cross-Shore Flows under Storm-Driven Conditions: Role of Stratification, Shoreline Orientation, and Bathymetry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractNumerical simulations are used to study the response of Long Bay, South Carolina, a typical coastal embayment with curved coastline located on the South Atlantic Bight, to realistic, climatologically defined, ...

Bulk vs. Spectral Wave Parameters: Implications on Stokes Drift Estimates, Regional Wave Modeling, and HF Radars Applications
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ccurate estimates of Stokes drift are necessary to quantify Lagrangian transport and upper-ocean mixing. These can be estimated from directional wave spectra. Here, a methodology for the reconstruction of such spectra is ...
Evaluation and Validation of HF Radar Swell and Wind-Wave Inversion Method

Wind Speed Dependence of Single-Site Wave-Height Retrievals from High-Frequency Radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
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 ...
