“…Due to the sea breeze, the wave height reaches maximum during 15:00-18:00 UTC except during May. In May, the wave height reaches maximum at 13: 00, 14:48, 16:12 and 16:12 UTC in 2011, 2009and 2010. Aboobacker et al (2014 and 21 h (12:30 and 15:30 UTC).…”

“…The sea state is often described in the frequency domain by a wave spectrum. The wave spectrum describes how the wave energy is distributed over a range of frequencies and is used to identify the different wave systems present at the measurement location (Soares, 1991;Hanson and Phillips, 2001;Cuchiara et al, 2009). The spectral description of the sea states is an important input for the design of marine structures.…”

Abstract. The inter-annual variations in wave spectrum are examined based on the wave data measured at 9 m water depth off the central west coast of India from 2009 to 2012 using a wave rider buoy. The temporal variation of the spectral energy density over a calendar year indicates similar variation in all the four years studied. The inter-annual variations in wave spectrum are observed in all months with larger variations during January to February, May and October to November due to the changes in wind-sea. The seasonal average wave spectrum during the monsoon (June-September) is single-peaked and the swell component is high in 2011 compared to other years. The annual averaged wave spectrum had higher peak energy during 2011 due to the higher spectral energy present during the monsoon period. During the non-monsoon period, two peaks are predominantly observed in the wave spectra; with the average peak at 0.07 Hz corresponding to the swells from the Indian Ocean and another at 0.17 Hz due to the local wind field.

“…Both campaigns were conducted at sites near the Rio Grande channel in the central part of the RS coast. In the same region, Cuchiara et al (2009) used measurements and modeling to study the effect of a cohesive mud bottom in attenuating wave energy in shallow waters, which turned out to be of great interest for the nearshore wave climate of that part of the RS coast because of the presence of such material brought in from the Patos Lagoon by the Rio Grande channel.…”
