| Up to this day, design recommendations or practices for floating structures, such as DNVs RP-C205 and F205 for example, do not account for the existence of low frequency free Infragravity (IG) waves. These are low-frequency water waves which represent an additional excitation for (moored) floating structures. In this study, the influence of free IG waves on moored floating structures response is investigated and compared to second-order low-frequency wave forces, as the standard low frequency excitation, for two selected important free IG events in 2013 and 2014 at the SEM-REV (Site d'Experimentation En Mer - Récupération de l'Energie des Vagues) test site near Le Croisic, Pays-de-la-Loire, France. The wave forces and motion response for two example... |

| Global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) and modern motion-sensor packages allow the measurement of ocean surface waves with low-cost drifters. Drifting along or across current gradients provides unique measurements of wave–current interactions. In this study, we investigate the response of several combinations of GNSS receiver, motion-sensor package and hull design in order to define a prototype “surface kinematics buoy” (SKIB) that is particularly optimized for measuring wave–current interactions, including relatively short wave components that are important for air–sea interactions and remote-sensing applications. The comparison with existing Datawell Directional Waverider and Surface Wave Instrument Float with Tracking (SWIFT) buoys, as well as... |

| Observations of swell dissipation across oceans reveal a significant loss of energy that can be the result of many of processes. Among these candidate mechanisms, this paper examines the properties of the viscous air-sea boundary layer driven by swells in order to characterize the induced atmospheric flow regime and its associated viscous dissipation over swells. A series of 3-D numerical experiments is carried out with a RANS model and appropriate turbulence closure. These experiments reveal a laminar to turbulent transition in the near free-surface region for a common range of characteristic amplitudes and periods of swells under stationary conditions. At low Reynolds number, laminar conditions prevail and computed decay rates conform to the analytical... |
