Wave forecasting and monitoring during very severe cyclone Phailin in the Bay of Bengal.
Wave fields, both measured and forecast during the very severe cyclone Phailin, are discussed in this communication. Waves having maximum height of 13.54 m were recorded at Gopalpur, the landfall point of the cyclone. The forecast and observed sidnificant wave heights matched well at Gopalpur with c...
