Tropical cyclones (TCs) are strong natural hazards that are important for local and global air–
sea interactions. This manuscript briefly reviews the knowledge about the upper ocean …

More than three decades of observations of tropical cyclone wind and wave fields have
resulted in a detailed understanding of wave-growth dynamics, although details of the …

Waves breaking at the ocean surface are important to the dynamical, chemical and
biological processes at the air‐sea interface. The traditional view is that the white cap** …

Using the well-observed hurricane case Ivan (2004) as an example, we investigate and
intercompare the performance of two wave models under hurricane conditions. One is the …

A parametric model for computationally efficient wave height estimation within tropical
cyclone conditions is developed. An updated wind vortex model is used to force a moving …

Forecasting hurricane impacts of extreme winds and flooding requires accurate prediction of
hurricane structure and storm-induced ocean surface waves days in advance. The waves …

Simple Summary Multi-satellite observations to jointly analyze extreme surface wind and
wave properties can now be readily obtained to study tropical cyclone (TC) events …

An extensive database of altimeter measurements of wind speed and significant wave
height is analysed to investigate the spatial distribution of significant wave height within …

Two deep‐sea moorings were deployed 780 km off the coast of southern Taiwan for 4–5
months during the 2010 typhoon season. Directional wave spectra, wind speed and …
