The transformation of the directional wave spectrum over an inhomogeneous sea/coastal environment is considered. Inhomogeneities include intermediate-water depth, strongly varying 3D bottom topography and ambient currents. The consistent coupled-mode model, developed by Athanassoulis and Belibassaki...
