... typhoon waves. The primary driving force for ocean surface waves is sea surface wind stress. The parameterization of it is necessary for the research of air-sea interaction and wave simulation. Many studies have been done to determine sea surface wind stress through parameterization of drag coefficient...

... in tropics and the negative wind stress curl in the midlatitude Pacific show the same intensified/subdued trends in each period. There is a good relationship between the multidecadal wind trends and sea level rising trends in the Pacific. The multidecadal sea level change in several typical areas including...

... know wind is the most important factor. This study coupled storm and wave models together, considering wind stress and radiation stress to simulate the storm processes. For the study, we focus on temperate storm surge in the Bohai Bay which are caused by temperate cyclone or front winds. The simulating...

... spatially. The interannual amplitude was less than 5 cm, which steric effects contributed 65%.The correlation between steric sea level and sea level can reach to 0.93. We found that ocean currents and zonal wind stress exhibited as the main oceanic dynamic factors to influence the interannual sea level...

... observations have been carried out to investigate the magnitude of wind stress over the surf zone. Results of this study indicate that the wind drag coefficient and the aerodynamic roughness of ocean surface are significantly larger over the surf than in deep water. INTRODUCTION Wind transfers momentum...

... of sea level to the 97-98 El Niño event, The sea level variation during 97-98 El Niño caused by wind is about 80% and the residual is caused by heat flux and SSS. KEY WORDS: El Niño; wind stress; SST; SSS; sea level; North Pacific; heat flux; numerical simulation. INTRODUCTION As the impact of human...

... function is dominated by the Charnock number. When the Charnock relation is extended as a function of wave age, the drag coefficient is still nearly a linear function of wind speed after invoking the 3/2 power law. The slope of the linear function is dominated by wave steepness. INTRODUCTION Wind stress...

... have a strong impact on all the elevation, current and wave fields. The sea surface elevation can increase 7cm in the Laizhou Bay, and decrease 7 cm in the Liaodong Bay under the effect of the enhanced wind stress derived from the surface wave. The wave influence on the wind stress also can increase...

... stress has sufficiently sensitive wave age dependence. Especially under the conditions of strong wind forcing and limited fetch or depth, the dominant wave may support a significant portion of the total wind stress. Therefore, Eq. 3 may describe the asymptotic roughness lengths for a well-developed sea...

.... The results show that the frequency of wind wave in Case 1 can be used in the relationship between non-dimensionai roughness length and wave age but not for Case 2 data sets. INTRODUCTION The sea surface wind stress has generally been estimated using the drag coefficient Cn. However, there stilJ exists...

... A three-dimensional hydrodynamic model of the Baidaratskaya Bay is used to examine the response of the region to forcing along its open boundary and wind stress over the area. The model has resolution of the order of two miles and hence can resolve some features of the nearshore region...
