Development of a Highly Efficient and Accurate Wind-Wave Simulation Framework for Operational Data Assimilation

Abstract

This research aims at developing a highly efficient yet accurate computation framework for simulation and prediction of wave and wind coupled motions with wave phases being resolved, which will lead to an advanced data assimilation tool to provide more comprehensive environmental input for naval applications. Our ultimate goal is to pave the way for developing an operational tool for the Navy to use for ocean-wave-atmosphere battlespace sensing and prediction with high resolution.
