Wind induced surface gravity waves

Wind induced surface gravity waves in the North Indian Ocean and their potential applications

Beschreibung

This classic study deals with characteristics of wind induced surface gravity waves in the North Indian Ocean. The author has established 60 years wind-wave climate implementing wave model 3g-WAM. Experiments are presented for monsoon periods using IRS-P4 satellite (Oceansat1) analysed wind fields. The performance of the wave model is evaluated by extensive validation with sea-state observations. Potential applications of simulated sea-state information for Research, Civilian and Defence sector are demonstrated with several practical case studies. It is a useful reference for Oceanographers, Meteorologists, Navigators, Coastal Engineers and Port Planners.
