We consider the energy transfer equation for well-developed ocean waves under the
influence of wind, and study the conditions for the existence of an equilibrium solution in which …

This book addresses both fundamental and applied aspects of ocean waves including the
use of wave observations made from satellites. More specifically it describes the WAM model, …

Data from the 1996 ASGAMAGE experiment, performed in the southern North Sea at
research platform Meetpost Noordwijk (MPN), are analysed for the parameters affecting the …

Bouwa has given a discussion of a severe storm in the southern North Sea, on 3 January
1976 near Texel, one of the Friesian islands. This storm was characterized by a remarkable …

The ERA (European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts Reanalysis) project
resulted in a homogeneous data set describing the atmosphere over a time span of 15 years, …

There are indications that the mean significant wave height at Seven Stones Light Vessel has
increased in the period 1960–85. This is of considerable interest for the design of offshore …

The known first order radiative corrections to Bhabha scattering and mupair production are
extended to include the hadronic vacuum polarization. For the evaluation, the measured total …

The generation and growth of gravity–capillary waves (λ ≈ 1 cm) by wind are reconsidered
using linear instability theory to describe the process. For all friction velocities we solve the …

GONO is a numerical wave prediction model used for the preparation of forecasts as well as
hind‐casts. It is a hybrid model: the wind sea is described in a parametric way, but swell is …

Climate simulations with an atmospheric model at T106 resolution are analysed to study the
effect of greenhouse warming on the North Atlantic wind climatology. The analysis is based …
