The numerical simulation of high Reynolds number flows is hampered by model accuracy if
the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations are used, and by computational …

This paper is the product of the wave modelling community and it tries to make a picture of
the present situation in this branch of science, exploring the previous and the most recent …

New parameterizations for the spectral dissipation of wind-generated waves are proposed.
The rates of dissipation have no predetermined spectral shapes and are functions of the …

This book treats the subject of sediment transport in the marine environment, covering
transport of noncohesive sediment by waves and currents in-and outside the surf zone. It …

The subject of ocean turbulence is in a state of discovery and development with many
intellectual challenges. This book describes the principal dynamic processes that control the …

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation on scour around piles
exposed to waves. In addition to the actual scour tests, bed shear-stress measurements and …

Global observations of ocean swell, from satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar data, are used to
estimate the dissipation of swell energy for a number of storms. Swells can be very …

Over the past decade, the diminishing Arctic sea ice has impacted the wave field, which
depends on the ice-free ocean and wind. This study characterizes the wave climate in the …

The wavelength, height, and steepness of ripples formed under oscillatory flows in flume
and field studies are reexamined to construct a simple and accurate method of predicting …

Near-bed wave orbital velocities and shear stresses are important parameters in many
sediment-transport and hydrodynamic models of the coastal ocean, estuaries, and lakes …
