Assimilation of Three-Dimensional Phase-Resolved Wave-Field Data Using an Efficient High-Order Spectral Method

Abstract

The long-term goal is to develop a robust and efficient computational tool for direct phase-resolved large-scale simulations of nonlinear ocean wave-field evolutions under offshore and coastal environments including realistic effects due to nonlinear wave-wave interactions, variable current, wave-breaking dissipation, bottom reflection and refraction, and wind-wave interactions.
