Statistical downscaling and climate change in the coastal zone
Ocean wave climate has a significant impact on human activities, and its understanding is socioeconomically and environmentally important. In this thesis, we are interested in characterizing sea state parameters such as significant wave height (Hs) using statistical and deep learning methods. In par...

Ocean wave climate has a significant impact on human activities, and its understanding is socioeconomically and environmentally important. In this thesis, we are interested in characterizing sea state parameters such as significant wave height (Hs) using statistical and deep learning methods. In particular, we are interested in modeling the relationship between North Atlantic wind conditions and sea state parameters at a location in the Bay of Biscay. Given the multidimensionality of the wind data and the time-lagged relationship between wind conditions and waves, we first propose a general framework to select the relevant covariates that influence the significant wave height. After the preprocessing step, a regression model based on weather types is proposed to model the relationship between wind and waves. The weather types are constructed using a clustering algorithm, and then, for each weather type, a Ridge regression is fitted between the wind conditions and the significant wave height. The model predicts Hs well; however, it has some limitations, namely: (i) Ridge regression does not take into account that the covariates have a spatial structure; and (ii) the weather types are constructed a priori using a clustering algorithm, and they are not evaluated based on the prediction of Hs. Therefore, we propose an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm to estimate the parameters of the generalized Ridge regression with spatial covariates. Then, to account for (i) and (ii), we propose a mixture of generalized Ridge experts estimated using a variational EM algorithm. This model is used as a weather-types-based regression model, and its performance is better than that of the original model.Finally, the last part of this thesis is devoted to developing deep learning methods for sea state parameters prediction.
