dc.description.abstract | Wave fields, both measured and forecast during the very severe cyclone Phailin, are discussed in this communication. Waves having maximum height of 13.54 m were recorded at Gopalpur, the landfall point of the cyclone. The forecast and observed sidnificant wave heights matched well at Gopalpur with correlation coefficient of 0.98, RMS error of 0.35 m and scatter index of 14%. Forcasts were also validated in the open ocean and found to be reliable (scatter index <15%). The study also revealed the presence of southern Ocean swells with a peak period of 20-22 sec hitting Gopalpur coast along with the cyclone-generated waves. | |
