Wind Wave Dynamic’s Analysis Based on 3D Wave Hydrodynamics and SWAN Models Using Remote Sensing Data

Wind-wave models of the third generation WAM, SWAN, WaveWatch give realistic forecasts consistent with the data obtained on the basis of analytical, numerical, experimental approaches, but they also have a number of significant drawbacks. The paper presents a model of wave hydrodynamics that takes into account advective and microturbulent transport in the vertical direction in the coastal zone, and, as a result, is devoid of a number of disadvantages that limit the possibilities of using SWAN-type models. The contours of the image of the Azov Sea obtained from the WorldView satellite, determined by the method of a local binary template, are presented, which are used in the models as input data. As input data in the models, the contours of the image of the Azov Sea are used, determined by the method of a local binary template obtained from the WorldView satellite. The results of numerical experiments obtained on the basis of SWAN and a three-dimensional model of wave hydrodynamics are presented, and their comparison is carried out.
