| Summary: | This book provides an up-to-date overview of the last 40 years of ocean wave modelling. It emphasizes the development of ocean wave analysis and prediction procedures and their utility for real-time operations, as well as other applications. The book synthesizes the results of a number of recent research reports including a wave model comparison study initiated by the author. It concludes with a brief discussion of future development as it relates to satellite remote sensing and wave model initialization. This book will be useful to those involved with ocean wave modelling, marine forecasters, coastal engineers, and offshore technologists. It can be used to teach an advanced-level course in ocean wave modelling and marine meteorology. |
