Session Description:
Ocean waves propagate at a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. Their development and evolution depend strongly on the surrounding environment, for example oceanic currents, turbulence, topography and sea ice. In particular, in the latter two cases, wave processes related to bottom friction, shallow water coastal wave breaking and sea ice in the marginal ice zone, are largely dissipative. Moreover, in terms of anthropogenic factors, offshore wind farms and tidal/wave energy converters modify the natural environment and thus interact with waves. To improve marine weather forecasting and climate studies, recent efforts have attempted to use numerical and experimental approaches to elucidate the coupling dynamics that combine ocean, waves, atmospheric and ice models. Although significant process has occurred, challenges remain. For example, the interactions between waves and oceanic turbulence and its intermittent behavior are not yet solved. In this session, contributions are invited relating to experimental, numerical and theoretical studies of the interactions of ocean waves and the environment, including ocean currents, sea ice, coastal structures, the seabed and related processes at all spatial and temporal scales.
