Wave runup and wave rundown estimation based on long-term variation of wind statistics

The paper presents a simple analytical method that can be used to estimate wave runup (RU) and wave rundown (RD) on shorelines and coastal structures for sea states based on long-term wind statistics. Eight different recently published wave RU formulae and one RD formula are applied together with wi...
