Wave Forecasting in Muddy Coastal Environments: Model Development Based on Real-Time Observations

Abstract

The objective of the proposed work is to study wave evolution in cohesive sedimentary environments, toward the development of an effective, stochastic model for wave dissipation in these environments. The project will focus on prediction of surface wave evolution over relatively large spatial scales (spatial scales of 100 wavelengths), intermediate-depth to shallow water.
