The TOHOKU-II Wave Model

  • Chapter
The Ocean Surface

Abstract

The TOHOKU-II Wave Model is a revised version of the TOHOKU Wave Model which participated in the SWAMP. Main points of the revision are described, and a hindcasting case study for a typhoon ORCHOID (8013) is Presented, with the observed wave data for comparison.
