Abstract

The capability of a parametrical surface wave model to predict the sea state on a small array for highly variable wind fields is shown for three examples. The model treats the wind sea, for which the nonlinear interaction is most effective, in a parametrical sense. The swell is propagated along characteristics, and the source function for the swell is assumed to be zero. The model output is compared with wave measure- ments from the JONSWAP 73 experiment
