Extreme Waves in the Agulhas Current Region Inferred from SAR Wave Spectra and the SWAN Model

The influence of the Agulhas Current on the wave field is investigated. The study is conducted by performing high resolution spectral wave model simulations with and without ocean currents. The validation of the numerical simulations is performed for the Significant Wave Height (Hs) using all possib...
