Global Validation of SWIM/CFOSAT Wind Waves Against Voluntary Observing ship Data

V. G. Grigorieva et al.

Summary: This article presents a joint analysis of wind and wave characteristics using data from Voluntary Observing Ship (VOS) and the Ku-band radar SWIM. The analysis shows good agreement in the global distributions of significant wave height and wind speed. The study also examines the partitions of wave spectra measured by SWIM and finds that they cannot be clearly attributed to wind sea or swell systems. A comparison of VOS and SWIM data shows close matches in average statistics but with some dispersion in individual measurements.

Wave variability along the world's continental shelves and coasts: Monitoring opportunities from satellite Earth observation

Rafael Almar et al.

Summary: Insight into wave regimes along coastlines is crucial for coastal and nearshore activities, installations, planning, and protection. Waves play a significant role in driving various processes such as extreme sea levels, pollutant and sediment transport, erosion, and flooding risks. This study provides quantification of global spatio-temporal wave conditions and highlights the importance of coastal Earth Observation strategies in optimizing activities along coastlines.

Satellite, drone and video camera multi-platform monitoring of coastal erosion at an engineered pocket beach: A showcase for coastal management at Elmina Bay, Ghana (West Africa)

D. B. Angnuureng et al.

Summary: Regular monitoring of coastal areas is crucial for mitigating erosive disasters. The erosion along Ghana's coastline, like other countries in the Gulf of Guinea, is a persistent issue. This study used multiple data collection methods, including drones, cameras, satellite images, and a dumpy level, to assess shoreline changes in Elmina Bay, Ghana. The results identified the causes and areas of erosion at a fine scale and highlighted the effectiveness of local video cameras and drones for monitoring shoreline changes. Satellite imagery, although a potential alternative, has limitations in temporal resolution for detecting daily or event-based beach changes.

A global ensemble of ocean wave climate statistics from contemporary wave reanalysis and hindcasts

J. Morim et al.

Summary: There is a lack of consistent dataset that can sample across all existing products based on a standardized framework. This study presents the first coordinated multi-product ensemble of present-day global wave fields. The dataset includes general and extreme statistics of wave height, period, and direction computed from different global wave products.

On the Accuracy of Voluntary Observing Ship's Records

Roberto Vettor et al.

Summary: A one-to-one comparison was made between the significant wave height reported by Voluntary Observing Ships (VOS) and the ERA-interim database, which revealed good database quality in analyzing average values but also highlighted significant differences in observations. Critical areas and conditions where numerical data and observations mismatch were identified in the study.

Modeling the Bight of Benin (Gulf of Guinea, West Africa) coastline response to natural and anthropogenic forcing

Gregoire O. Abessolo et al.

Summary: The 400-km long coast of the Bight of Benin is characterized by sand barriers and lagoons, bordered by the Niger River Delta to the east and the Volta River Delta to the west, and features several important coastal infrastructures including deep water harbors at Lome, Cotonou, and Lagos. An enhanced version of the CASCADE coastal evolution model was used to simulate the evolution of the coast from 2000 to 2015, considering coastal infrastructure, inlets, and reduced sediment influx from rivers. The model results showed simulated coastal response around main coastal infrastructure in agreement with observed data, and could be a useful tool for improving regional coastal policies in the Bight of Benin.

Future behavior of wind wave extremes due to climate change

Hector Lobeto et al.

Summary: The study shows that extreme waves will undergo significant changes in the future under different climate change scenarios, with the Southern Ocean projected to experience robust increases in extreme wave heights while the tropical north Pacific is expected to see substantial decreases. Additionally, there are notable divergences between the projected behavior of mean and extreme wave conditions in certain ocean regions, indicating that caution should be exercised when extrapolating changes in mean wave conditions to extremes in these areas.

Spatiotemporal variations and extreme value analysis of significant wave height in the South China Sea based on 71-year long ERA5 wave reanalysis

Jichao Wang et al.

Summary: A thorough understanding of long-term trends and extreme characteristics in significant wave height (SWH) is essential for coastal and offshore engineering activities. This study evaluates the annual spatiotemporal variability and return periods of SWH in the South China Sea, showing significant positive trends in extreme SWH. The Generalized Pareto Distribution incorporating the Peak Over Threshold (GPD-POT) method is found to be suitable for evaluating return periods in the region.

Long-term spatio-temporal trends in extreme wave events in the Niger delta coastlines.

Ayodotun Adekunle Osinowo et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the spatio-temporal trends in extreme Significant Wave Height (SWH) in the Niger Delta coastlines and finds near neutral and negative trends over the region. The significant variation in extreme SWH between 1998 and 2000 is attributed to a strong El Nino and La Nina phenomenon.
