Wave propagation under influence of currents

The present study aims to assess the prediction of wave penetration into tidal inlets under ambient current in SWAN. The performance of SWAN in the modelling of wave-current interaction was studied for two field cases, namely Port Phillip Bay Heads, Australia, and the Amelander Zeegat in the Dutch Wadden Sea. In-situ wave observations were...

Hindcast tidal inlet of Ameland storms: January and March 2007

During the storm season from October 2006 untill April 2007 several severe storms occurred at the North Sea. Three storm periods are selected to study the realiability of the SWAN wave model by means of a hindcast. The objective of this hindcast is to gain insight into the performance of the SWAN model, especially under storm conditions for the...
