The process of generation of sea waves by the wind has fascinated the human mind since ancient times
Monte Carlo simulations of multiple realizations of the spectrum with initial phase randomization (IPR) were performed
In spite of impressive progress attained over the years in the prediction of ocean waves using theoretical and numerical models, many questions regarding wind–wave interaction remain unresolved
Summary
The process of generation of sea waves by the wind has fascinated the human mind since ancient times. The quantitative description of the spatial and temporal variability of water waves in the presence of wind requires experimental verification by comparison of model predictions with results of detailed and accurate measurements. This is a formidable task, since measurements of wind waves carried out in natural reservoirs such as oceans or lakes are subjected to 901 A22-2. Laboratory experiments carried out under controlled conditions can provide much more accurate and detailed information. The characteristic time and space scales even in the largest available experimental facilities differ by orders of magnitude from those in the ocean
