About this book

This book deals with the study of wave phenomena caused by winds in the world's oceans. It pays particular attention to modern developments that take into account the propagation of ocean waves at global distances and their interaction with the sea bottom, ocean currents and the ice cover.

Contents

General Problem Formulation of Wind-Wave Modelling in Non-Uniform Ocean.- Mathematical Simulation of Wave Propagation at Global Distances.- Numerical Realisation of Wave Energy Balance Equation.- Study of Physical Mechanisms Forming Wave Energy Spectrum in Deep Water.- Wave Energy Dissipation in Deep Water.- Wave Transformation in Shallow Water.- Wave Transformatin in Ice-Covered Water.

Media reviews

From the reviews: "The book by I. Lavrenov presents his view on the subject, based upon more than 25 years experience both in fundamental theoretical and experimental research, as well as in developing operational forecasting. ! The book contains a lot of helpful material ! . The book has a consistent underlying philosophy, being 'practically' oriented ! . Scientists and engineers concerned with practical aspects of wave modelling could definitely benefit from having it as a complementary one on their shelf." (Victor Shrira, Geophysical and Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics, Vol. 98 (3), June, 2004)
