Numerical Wave Simulations On Different Oceanic Scales, Khalid M. Zubier Aug 2002

Numerical Wave Simulations On Different Oceanic Scales, Khalid M. Zubier

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In practical applications, numerical wave models are used as reliable tools to provide near future wave predictions and wave climatology for specific region. Obviously models first should go through extensive validation/verification procedures. Once validated, models can be used in scientific applications to investigate methods for improving performance and to develop better understanding of wave associated physical mechanisms and their interactions in specific field experiments. Two wave transformation models, SWAN and CGWAVE, are used to simulate wave conditions at the Field Research Facility, Duck (North Carolina). The motivation is to examine how well these models reproduce observations and to determine the …

Tidal Dynamics In The Bab El Mandab Strait, Ewa Jarosz Jan 2002

Tidal Dynamics In The Bab El Mandab Strait, Ewa Jarosz

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The Bab el Mandab Strait is where the transition occurs between two noticeably different tidal regimes: the Gulf of Aden, where tidal fluctuations are mixed and have a range in excess of 2 m, and the Red Sea, where the tides are principally semidiurnal and their range is less than 1 m. Within the Strait, observations collected between May of 1995 and July of 1997 indicate that tidal currents are a mixed type and dominant constituents are the K1 and M2. The vertical structure of the tidal currents is complicated, differs between semidiurnal and diurnal constituents, and …
