Wind-Waves in Oceans Dynamics and Numerical Simulations / by Igor Lavrenov.

This research monograph deals with the study of wave phenomena caused by winds in the world's oceans. Particular attention is paid to modern developments that take into account the propagation of ocean waves at global distances and their interaction with the sea bottom, ocean currents and the i...
