Simple data fusion from several ocean and atmosphere hindcast models improves surface drifter trajectory prediction
Jean Rabault, Knut Frode Dagestad, Gaute Hope
Simulating the trajectory of surface drifters in the ocean matters for search and rescue, pollution tracking, oil and chemical spill response, and marine risk analysis. Accurate pr…
ORB: An Open Radio Buoy for Coastal Water Measurements
Lars Willas Dreyer, Andrea Pferscher, Riccardo Sieve +4
Oceanographic instrumentation technology is currently under rapid transition towards increasingly open-source technology. Open-source buoys compete with commercial and closed-sourc…
OpenWaveLogger v2026 (OWL-v2026): an open source, low cost, easy to build, high performance logger for wave data measurements
Jean Rabault, Joey Voermans, Takuji Waseda +10
Ocean wave models are critical for weather and climate forecasting, and accurate in-situ wave observations are essential for validating and improving these models. Open-source, com…
Observations of high-frequency spectral peaks from in-situ waves in ice data: evidence for nonlinear waves in ice triad interactions?
Jean Rabault, Joey Voermans, Takehiko Nose +16
The propagation of waves through the marginal ice zone (MIZ) and deeper into pack ice is a key phenomenon that influences the breakup and drift of sea ice. When waves in ice propag…
Direct in-situ observations of wave-induced floe collisions in the deeper Marginal Ice Zone
Lars Willas Dreyer, Jean Rabault, Atle Jensen +4
Ocean waves propagating through the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ) and the pack ice are strongly attenuated. This attenuation is critical for protecting sea ice from energetic wave events…
