Wave transmission in mangrove forests

Schiereck, G.J. (author), Booij, N. (author)

There is an increasing awareness of the role of mangrove forests in coastal ecosystems and coastal protection. At the transition between ocean and land, they have to absorb the energy that comes from the motion of the water. Little quantitative in formation is available, however, on wave transmission in these forests. In this paper the...

The maximum significant wave height in the Southern North Sea

Holthuijsen, L.H. (author), Eldeberky, Y. (author), Booij, N. (author), Ferier, P. (author)

The maximum possible wave conditions along the Dutch coast, which seem to be dominated by the limited water depth, have been estimated in the present study with numerical simulations. Discussions with meteorologists suggest that the maximum possible sustained wind speed in North Sea conditions is between 40 and 50 m/s (roughly equal to the wind...

A Numerical Wave Model for the Refraction and Diffraction of Irregular Waves. Part II: Numerical Experiments of the Wave Model CREON

Gao, Q. (author), Radder, A.C. (author), Booij, N. (author)

The numerical wave model CREON is developed to predict the propagation and transformation of wave properties in shallow water. In Gao et al. (1993), which is referred to as Part I in the following, a description is given of the theoretical and numerical treatment of the model. In the present report, we present various computational results. The...

Selection and formulation of a numerical shallow water wave hindcast model

Holthuijsen, L.H. (author), Booij, N. (author)

Formulate a numerical wave hindcast model which can be used to obtain realistic estimates of wave conditions in the Oosterschelde as input to a numerical geomorphological model. A directionally decoupled, parametric wave hindeast model is recommended that includes parameterized versions of conventional bottom- and current refraction, some degree...

Gravity waves on water with non-uniform depth and current

Booij, N. (author)

A mathematical model for the combined refraction-diffraction of linear periodic gravity waves on water is developed, in which the influence of inhomogeneities of depth and current is taken into account. The model is used to compute partial reflection of waves a gully or an undersea slope, with influence of a current. The model is also applied to...
