Predicting ocean waves along the US east coast during energetic winter storms: sensitivity to whitecapping parameterizations
<p>The performance of two methods for quantifying whitecapping dissipation incorporated in the Simulating Waves Nearshore (SWAN) wave model is evaluated for waves generated along and off the US east coast under energetic winter storms with a predominantly westerly wind. Parameterizing the whit...
