The Effect of Horizontal Shear on Extracting Water Currents From Surface Wave Data
Stefan Weichert, Benjamin K. Smeltzer, Simen Å. Ellingsen
The dispersive motion of surface waves is now routinely used to remotely measure the currents close beneath the surface of oceans and other natural flows. The current manifests as…
Biases from spectral leakage in remote sensing of near-surface currents
Stefan Weichert, Benjamin K. Smeltzer, Simen Å. Ellingsen
Remotely measuring subsurface water currents from imagery of the wave field has become a much-used technique. We study the biases and errors in such measurements due to spectral le…
An improved method for determining near-surface currents from wave dispersion measurements
Benjamin K. Smeltzer, Eirik Æsøy, Anna Ådnøy +1
A new inversion method for determining near-surface shear currents from a measured wave spectrum is introduced. The method is straightforward to implement and starts from the exist…
