Extractions: NEW! (2004-04-07) Version 2.1.0 released! See the pages for Download and Bugs WAFO is a toolbox of Matlab routines for statistical analysis and simulation of random waves and random loads. The routines are collected in subdirectories according to application. Tools are provided for analysis of measured data with routines for estimation of parameters in statistical distributions, estimation of spectra, plotting in probability papers, etc. An important part of WAFO are routines for calculation of theoretical distributions of characteristic wave parameters from observed or theoretical power spectra of the sea. Another part is related to statistical analysis of fatigue. The theoretical density of rainflow cycles can be computed from parameters of random loads. Further, a collection of routines is included for modelling of switching loads (hidden Markov models). A special part of WAFO contains general statistical tools. A new philosophy concerning documentation is presented. The toolbox contains scripts for generation of plots in recent publications and scripts for comparison with results in the literature. Data sets from measurements of the sea surface are included. WAFO is developed for use with Matlab version 5.x/6.x. Some routines call programs written in Fortran. Versions for PC/Windows and Unix environments are available.

WOO2003 - Waves And Operational Oceanography A scientific workshop to assess the current state of knowledge on waves in relation to currents, surface drifts and airsea interactions hosted by the French Hydrographic and Oceanographic Service (SHOM). http://surfouest.free.fr/WOO2003/
Extractions: WOO2003, scientific workshop, 23 and 24 june 2003, Brest, France Participants helped define how observations, wave research and operational forecasting can be combined with the emerging operational oceanography to provide relevant services for end-users, based on theory for wave-current interaction processes including hydrodynamic modulation, turbulent profiles and air-sea fluxes. Waves are the driving force of littoral zone dynamics, responsible for coastal erosion and flooding, and on a larger scale waves determine the still poorly known air-sea exchanges (of momentum, heat, CO2 ...), a challenge for understanding global change and climate dynamics. This workshop was also supported by CNRS and Ifremer.

Waves Characteristics (Ocean / Lakes) Waves are generated on the surface of water (ocean/lakes) by wind. The wind transfers energy to the water, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules. Waves of water do not move horizontally, they only move up and down (a wave does not represent a flow of water). Use this wave interactive to learn more on waves.
