Advances in understanding of ocean surface waves at the coast: evidence from new observations and models

Session ID#: 255635

Session Description:
Innovation in observing platforms, instrumentation, algorithms and predictive capability have brought a wealth of evidence on the impact and nature of ocean surface waves, particularly near the coast, increasing understanding of: waves across the shelf; their coastal evolution; estuarine environments; and a range of processes including wave-current interactions and air-sea interactions mediated by waves. Coastal populations, infrastructure, habitat loss, ocean energy, marine resources and maritime safety motivate further understanding of erosion, overtopping, flooding and other ecosystem services and natural resources.

Remote sensing from ground-based, airborne, and satellite platforms offers a unique perspective on coastal sea states alongside traditional approaches (e.g. buoys), with improved temporal resolutions, and at scales extending from inland waters to the open ocean.

We encourage submissions on novel methods or algorithms for coastal altimetry, including results from SWOT and other SAR satellites; ground-based radar or GNSS-IR; drone-mounted systems and distributed acoustic sensing. Combinations of numerical model and observations have also been a powerful approach to building a better dynamical understanding of coastal waves in complex and dynamic environments. We particularly welcome submissions illustrating innovative processing or applications that highlight direct societal benefit.
