| Zusammenfassung |
| A coupling of a spectral wave model with a nonlinear phase-resolving model
is used to reconstruct the evolution of wave statistics during a storm
crossing the North Sea on 8–9 November 2007. During this
storm a rogue wave (named the Andrea wave) was recorded at the Ekofisk
field. The wave has characteristics comparable to the well-known New Year
wave measured by Statoil at the Draupner platform 1 January 1995.
Hindcast data of the storm at the nearest grid point to the Ekofisk field
are here applied as input to calculate the evolution of random realizations
of the sea surface and its statistical properties. Numerical simulations are
carried out using the Euler equations with a higher-order spectral method
(HOSM). Results are compared with some characteristics of the Andrea wave
record measured by the down-looking lasers at Ekofisk. |
