During its periodic motion, a particle floating at the free surface of a water wave experiences
a net drift velocity in the direction of wave propagation, known as the Stokes drift (Stokes …

Coastal zones are highly dynamical systems affected by a variety of natural and
anthropogenic forcing factors that include sea level rise, extreme events, local oceanic and …

OpenDrift is an open-source Python-based framework for Lagrangian particle modelling
under development at the Norwegian Meteorological Institute with contributions from the …

In the long term development of the research on wind waves and their modelling, in
particular of the inner and coastal seas, the present situation is framed with a short look at …

In this paper we demonstrate a novel framework for assessing nature-based solutions
(NBSs) in coastal zones using a new suite of numerical models that provide a virtual …

This paper reviews physical mechanisms, observation techniques and modelling
approaches dealing with surface currents on short time scales (hours to days) relevant for …

European coasts are regularly exposed to severe storms that trigger extreme water-level
conditions, leading to coastal flooding and erosion. Early Warning Systems (EWS) are …

A major challenge for managing impacts and implementing effective mitigation measures
and adaptation strategies for coastal zones affected by future sea level (SL) rise is our …

Operational oceanography can be described as the provision of routine oceanographic
information needed for decision-making purposes. It is dependent upon sustained research …

A high‐resolution coupled ocean‐wave‐atmosphere model (Uppsala University Coupled
model, UU‐CM) of the Baltic Sea and the North Sea with improved representation of ocean …
