Abstract:

Consistency between national wave buoy networks is extremely important for wave climate studies and verification of global operational wave forecasting systems; however, it is insufficiently investigated. The validation of altimeter significant wave heights (SWHs) with the wave buoy networks of China, Europe and the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) show significant divergence in assessments. This reveals a negative bias and larger root mean square error and scatter index from the Chinese buoy network than from the European and NDBC buoy networks. A remote cross-calibration method is presented

Abstract:

When the oscillating buoy wave power device installed on the ocean buoy, the floater and the ocean buoy move up and down under the action of the waves. Therefore, whether there is a vertical relative displacement between the floater and the ocean buoy becomes a crucial problem of the wave power generation. Based on the wave theory, taking the vertical cylinder floater for example, introduced the wave force and the moving displacement of the floater，the relative displacement between the floater and three different sizes of ocean buoys under four different oceanic conditions was analyzed by MATL

Abstract:

AbstractWave-following buoys are used to provide measurements of free surface elevation across the oceans. The measurements they produce are widely used to derive wave-averaged parameters such as significant wave height and peak period, alongside wave-by-wave statistics such as crest height distributions. Particularly concerning the measurement of extreme wave crests, these measurements are often perceived to be less accurate. We directly assess this through a side-by-side laboratory comparison of measurements made using Eulerian wave gauges and model wave-following buoys for randomly generate

Abstract:

Drifting buoys collect wave data in the open ocean far from land and in areas with strong currents. However, the validation of the drifting buoy wave data is limited. Here, we compared the drifting buoy wave data, ERA5 wave data, and moored GPS buoy wave data. Data from 2009 to 2018 near the coast of Japan were used. The agreement of the drifting buoy-observed wave parameters with the moored GPS buoy-observed wave parameters is better than that of ERA5 wave parameters, which is statistically significant. In particular, the accuracy of the ERA5 wave heights tends to be lower where the ocean cur

AbstractThis paper is based on the premise that “wave energy conversion” is the conversion of the energy of ocean waves into other energy forms for the benefit of the environment. By taking advantage of the diffraction focusing phenomenon, commonly associated with water wave energy conversion, a bimodal buoy called the Antenna Buoy has been developed to both attract and dissipate incident water wave energy. As a result, arrays of the buoy can be deployed to form an effective floating breakwater system. Results from a full-scale experimental study show that an array of buoys, with each buoy pai

Abstract The oscillating buoy wave energy converter (OBWEC) captures wave energy through the undulating movement of the buoy in the waves. In the process of capturing wave energy, the hydrodynamic performance of the buoy plays an important role. This paper designed the “Haida No. 1” OBWEC, in which the buoy adopts a form of swinging motion. In order to further improve the hydrodynamic performance of the buoy, a 2D numerical wave tank (NWT) model is established using ADINA software based on the working principle of the device.

Abstract The Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) on board the Envisat satellite is an important resource for observation of global ocean surface wave spectra. However, assessment of this valuable dataset is not straightforward as a result of a lack of other independent ocean wave spectral observations. The radar altimeter (RA-2) on board the same satellite measures ocean wave height at the same time as the ASAR but at a location about 200 km distant. A small number of moored buoys produce one-dimensional (1D) ocean wave spectra but few ASAR spectra fall on the buoy positions in a given pe

The search for new solutions for the generation of energy is becoming more and more important for our future. Big arguments and disagreements on e.g. the questions of gas transport or the dependence on energy supplied by other countries raise demands on the development of new forms of alternative energy resources. Wave power is one of the main sources of renewable energy due to the high power density stored in ocean waves. Nevertheless, the dynamic forces of waves are so large that serious questions popped up on how to design a system which could work even in an unfavourable wave climate or co

Abstract:

Abstract Surface ocean waves are one of the potential processes that influence on the Arctic sea-ice extent. A better understanding of the generation, propagation, and attenuation of ocean waves under the sea ice is necessary to discuss the future Arctic climate change. We deployed two drifting wave buoys in the marginal ice zone in the western Arctic. Since the surface wave observation in the marginal ice zone is rare, the obtained data are useful for validation of the numerical modeling of the surface waves under the sea ice. The first buoy was deployed in the pancake-ice covered area and th

Abstract:

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the design and implementation of a wave model evaluation system, altWIZ, which uses wave height observations from operational satellite radar altimeters. The altWIZ system utilizes two recently released altimeter databases: Ribal and Young (2019) and European Space Agency Sea State Climate Change Initiative v.1.1 level 2 (Dodet et al. 2020). The system facilitates model evaluation against 1 Hz1 altimeter data or a product created by averaging altimeter data in space and time around model grid points. The system allows, fo

Abstract:

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) documents the development through verification and validation of three instability-suppressing mechanisms in FUNWAVE-TVD, a Boussinesq-type numerical wave model, when modeling deep-draft vessels with a low under-keel clearance (UKC). Many large commercial ports and channels (e.g., Houston Ship Channel, Galveston, US Army Corps of Engineers [USACE]) are traveled and affected by tens of thousands of commercial vessel passages per year. In a series of recent projects undertaken for the Galveston District (USACE), it was discovered tha
