Wave-current interactions: experiment and modelling ...

This research is a thorough investigation of the interactions between wind-generated ocean waves with currents. The physical aspects are analysed and discussed in laboratory and field conditions. The performance of widely used wave forecast models are tested in various situations, from local scales...
