Reduce uncertainty in our understanding of the present day and future wave climate to inform scheme design and flood forecasting. Non-stationarity in wave climate. How do we better link the meteorological & morphology driven impacts of the wave climate? |
Focus is on nearshore waves, but we need to be aware of limitations of offshore wave fore-hindcasting where these are used in the model chain. |
