The impact of surface currents and sea level on the wave field evolution during St. Jude storm in the eastern Baltic Sea

A third generation numerical wave model SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore) was applied to study the spatio-temporal effect of surface currents and sea level height on significant wave height; and to describe the mechanisms responsible for wave–current interaction in the eastern Baltic Sea. Simulation...
