## Abstract It is shown that the equation determining the streamlines of largeβscale atmospheric motions (jet streams and long waves) is similar to the equation determining the streamlines of smallβscale gravitational motions of a stratified liquid. Both motions are characterized by the occurrence
This paper presents a framework for synchronously coupling wave, current, sediment transport, and seabed morphology for the accurate simulation of multi-physics coastal ocean processes. The governing equations, which represent models that are commonly adopted in practical simulations, are discretize
A new parameter representing the maximum depth-integrated wave momentum flux occurring over a wave length is proposed for characterizing the wave contribution to nearshore coastal processes on beaches and at coastal structures. This parameter has units of force per unit crest width, and it character
An onshore wave prediction model is proposed by coupling a wave model and statistical methods: principal component analysis and Kalman filter. The wave model computes the offshore wave field, and the statistical methods evaluate the onshore wave climate from the computed offshore wave spectra. The w
