Sentence examples for maximum storm wave from inspiring English sources

In fact, here, the Crotone buoy, activated by RON and RMN (Rete Mareografica Nazionale), has indicated the maximum storm wave recorded in deep sea to be 6.2 m high.

The maximum storm waves, occurring near the Abşeron Peninsula, have been measured at more than 30 feet (9 metres).

For the Maddalena peninsula, Scicchitano et al. (2007) estimated a maximum storm generated wave height between 9.31 m and 9.36 m, by applying the equation of Sunamura and Horikawa (1974) used to calculate the height of a wave at breaking point (Hb) starting from the height and the period of the same wave measured in deep water (Ho).

Numerical methods can be a useful tool in identifying tsunami deposits if the maximum possible storm waves are assumed.

The 2011 Tohoku-oki and 1896 Meiji Sanriku tsunamis inundated far beyond the possible maximum limit of storm waves and fully covered the distribution area of the event layers (Fig. 3b).

A storm wave reaches at breaking point its maximum height, but as soon as it over runs the breaking point it breaks and continuously decreases in height until it approaches the coastline.

Model results in the New York Bight identify maximum storm surge of up to 3 m, surface currents on the order of 2 ms−1 along the New Jersey coast, waves up to 8 m in height, and bottom stresses exceeding 10 Pa.

The different theoretical models related with storm wave characterization focus on determining the significant wave height of the peak storm, the mean period and, usually assuming a triangle storm shape, their duration.

The sponge-microbial mounds could probably build up just to average storm wave base.

The dominant microscale cyclicity records changes in water agitation, possibly caused by fluctuating storm wave base.

Thus, the calculation could well reproduce the runup of actual storm wave, and the numerical simulation using the CADMAS-SURF is useful for the reproduction of storm waves.
