Basic waves To describe ocean waves, we use a right-handed, Cartesian coordinate system in which the z-axis points upward. The x- and y-axes point in horizontal directions at right angles. In the state of rest, the ocean surface coincides with z= 0. When waves are present, the surface is located at z= (x;y;t), where tis time. The ocean bottom is
Figure 1: Energy density spectrum of sea surface variability, showing the different types of surface waves occurring in the ocean. From LeBlond and Mysak [1978]. The aim of the present course is to discuss the current knowledge of the physical characteristics of two classes of ocean surface waves.
basis for so many flelds of classical and modern physics, than by watching the ocean? Where would physicists be in their understanding of °ux, continuity or conservation laws without observing the dynamics of °uids?
3 Οκτ 2013 · his text is intended to be a general but comprehensive overview on physical phenomena associated with the marine environment. I provide my own perspective on this field from my particular experiences and training.
Probably the most familiar class of ocean wave is the surface gravity wave at the air-water interface. These motions are characterized by periods of a few seconds, much shorter than the rotational period of Earth (see Figure 1). They can be generated locally by winds applied over a short \fetch" or
The Equations of Oceanic Motions derives and systematically classifies the most common dynamic equations used in physical oceanography, from those describing large-scale circulations to those describing small-scale turbulence.
