Abstract
REICHERT, K. and LUND, B., 2007. Ground based remote sensing as a tool to measure spatial wave field variations in coastal approaches. Journal of Coastal Research, SI 50 (Proceedings of the 9th International Coastal Symposium), pg – pg. Gold Coast, Australia, ISBN The wave monitoring system WaMoS II was developed for real time measurements of directional ocean wave spectra. The system is based on a standard marine X-band radar and can be operated to monitor the sea state from fixed platforms, in coastal areas or from moving vessels. In contrary to wave buoys it allows for temporal and spatial wave analysis. Wave data are needed in coastal areas to help increase safety of ship navigation and improve coastal protection strategies. This paper presents data obtained from the island of Sylt, Germany and at the entrance to Port Phillip Bay, Australia. Both regions are characterised by a complex bottom topography that leads to a highly spatially variable wave field. The wave transformation such as refraction, shoaling, and dissipation are described and quantified. WaMoS II proves to be a powerful tool to monitor changes of sea state caused by local topography.
REICHERT, K. and LUND, B., 2007.The ocean and the ocean of the ocean.The wave monitoring system WaMoS II was developed for real time measurement of directional ocean wave spectra.该系统以标准的海洋 X 波段雷达为基础,可从固定平台、沿海地区或移动船只上监测海况。与波浪浮标相反,它可以进行时间和空间波浪分析。沿海地区需要波浪数据,以帮助提高船舶航行安全和改进海岸保护战略。本文介绍了从德国 Sylt 岛和澳大利亚菲利普港湾入口处获得的数据。这两个地区的海底地形复杂,导致波场的空间变化很大。对折射、浅滩和消散等波浪变化进行了描述和量化。事实证明,WaMoS II 是监测当地地形造成的海况变化的有力工具。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Coastal Research (JCR) is one of the leading international journals for coastal studies and processes, and is published bi-monthly by the Coastal Education & Research Foundation [CERF]. By covering the entire field of coastal research, the JCR encompasses all subjects relevant to natural and engineered environments (freshwater, brackish, or marine) and the protection/management of their resources in the vicinity of coastlines of the world. Even though the journal broadly focuses on immediate shoreline zones, the JCR also embraces those coastal environments that either reach some indefinite distance inland or that extend seaward beyond the outer margins of the sublittoral (neritic) zone. The JCR disseminates accurate information to both the public and research specialists around the world on all aspects of coastal issues in an effort to maintain or improve the quality of our planet''s shoreline resources.
