The seminar will describe research conducted on the ocean waves and wave-related processes in the atmospheric boundary layer and upper ocean, in the Centre for Ocean Engineering, Science and Technology (COEST) at Swinburne University, Australia. This includes dynamics of nonlinear waves, direct and spectral wave modelling, sea drag, wave-induced ocean turbulence and mixing, extreme oceanic conditions, wave climate, metocean engineering.
