Waves critically affect man in coastal regions, including the open coasts and adjacent continental shelves. Preventing beach erosion, designing and building structures, designing and operating ships, providing marine forecasts, and coastal planning are but a few examples of projects for which extensive information about wave conditions is critical. Scientific studies, especially those in volving coastal processes and the development of better wave prediction models, also require wave condition information. How ever, wave conditions along and off the coasts of the United States have not been adequately determined. The main categories of available wave data are visual estimates of wave conditions made from ships at sea, scientific measurements of waves made for short time periods at specific locations, and a small number of long-term measurements made from piers or offshore platforms. With these considerations in mind, the National Ocean Survey of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration sponsored the Ocean Wave Climate Symposium at Herndon, Virginia, July 12-14, 1977. This volume contains papers presented at this symposium. A goal of the symposium was to establish the foundations for a com prehensive and far-sighted wave measurement and analysis program to fully describe the coastal wave climate of the United States. Emphasis was placed on ocean engineering and scientific uses of wave data, existing wave monitoring programs, and modern measure ment techniques which may provide currently needed data.

This planning report presents a technical summary and recommendations for jointly developing improved coastal wave prediction capabilities for the Army and Navy, and was prepared by the Army/Navy Wave Prediction Group. Wave related physical processes are crucial for both Army and Navy operations, such as mine, amphibious, and logistics over the shore. Current coastal wave prediction capabilities are inadequate to meet several critical nearshore operational requirements. Nearshore physical environments are intrinsically more complicated than deep water due to strong interactions of waves with currents and irregular bathymetry. Important dynamic processes include wave shoaling, refraction, diffraction, and energy dissipation through wave breaking and bottom friction. Attention must be given to wave-driven nearshore processes, which in turn influence wave conditions. The fine resolution (both spatial and temporal) coastal wind forecasting plays an equally central role in this endeavor. Coupled with the increased complications of the coastal regions is the stringent requirement that many DoD coastal littoral warfare requires a higher level of accuracy than deep-water counterparts. This report presents a technical strategy with a vertically integrated approach for improving DoD wave prediction capabilities to advance current state-of-the-art. The strategy encompasses theoretical and experimental studies, comprehensive new field measurements, numerical modeling, and operational validation/evaluation/lmodification. Substantial common interests currently exist between the Army and Navy, thus a new R&D program jointly funded and executed is deemed to be timely and cost effective. The final deliverable of this joint program will be an improved integrated coastal wave prediction system for Army and Navy operational needs.

This report describes the OPC spectral wave forecasting model for the Columbia River Bar, as well as the results of some numerical experiments, on both micro and main frame computers. The model, essentially, calculates the transformation of offshore wave spectra forecasted by the OPC global wave model due to the combined effects of bottom topography and tidal currents in the vicinity of the Columbia River entrance.

Waves in Oceanic and Coastal Waters describes the observation, analysis and prediction of wind-generated waves in the open ocean, in shelf seas, and in coastal regions with islands, channels, tidal flats and inlets, estuaries, fjords and lagoons. Most of this richly illustrated book is devoted to the physical aspects of waves. After introducing observation techniques for waves, both at sea and from space, the book defines the parameters that characterise waves. Using basic statistical and physical concepts, the author discusses the prediction of waves in oceanic and coastal waters, first in terms of generalised observations, and then in terms of the more theoretical framework of the spectral energy balance. He gives the results of established theories and also the direction in which research is developing. The book ends with a description of SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore), the preferred computer model of the engineering community for predicting waves in coastal waters.
