Many phase-averaged parametric nearshore wave models are based on the energy balance concept and use linear wave theory to calculate wave parameters (e.g., wave energy, wave height, wave setup). For a ...

Modeling currents together with wind and waves provides more accurate predictions for weather forecasts and climate scientists. As hurricanes grow in power as the climate changes, accurately modeling ...

Researchers have developed a three-step technique to estimate power generation loss in floating PV farms resulting from changes in tilt and mismatch losses. The new module was tested in an ...

When giant waves —sometimes 30 meters tall, many times the height of the surrounding crests—suddenly rear up out of the ocean, they pose severe threats to even the largest craft. Unlike tsunamis, ...
