In this study, the performance of SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore) spectral wave model
ST6 physics forced by ERA5 reanalysis wind data were evaluated in predicting the wave …

This study presents the first spatial calibration of SWAN model physical parameters based
on satellite observations for the Black and Azov Seas. Currently, the wind-wave model …

The quality of the third generation wave model WAVEWATCH III, referred WW3, using the
different source term packages is investigated in the context of wave growth and dissipation …

The main motivation of this research is to assess the trends of storm recurrence for the time
period from 1979 up to 2020 and to analyze the connection between storminess and large …

This paper presents the results of wind wave forecasts for the Black Sea. Three different
versions utilized were utilized: the WAVEWATCH III model with GFS 0.25 forcing on a …

As the world is moving toward greener forms of energy, to mitigate the effects of global
warming due to greenhouse gas emissions, wind energy has risen as the most invested-in …

Wave buoy measurements were carried out near the northeastern Black Sea coast at the
natural reserve Utrish in 2020–2021. In total, about 11 months of data records were …

Long-term wave climates of the Black and Azov Seas are widely assessed based on the
bulk wave parameters of the mixed sea. However, studies based on spectral wave partitions …

This study reveals changes in atmospheric circulation over the western part of the Black Sea
during the period 1979–2019 and related changes in wind conditions and sea wave in the …

Nearshore marine systems provide multiple economic and ecological services to human
communities. Several studies addressing the climate change stressors and the …
