Wave field properties in tropical cyclones from the spectral observation of the CFOSAT/SWIM spaceborne instrument
Résumé
• Ocean wave spectra measured with the CFOSAT/SWIM spaceborne instrument are investigated under tropical cyclones over a three-year period. • The asymmetry of the wave parameters depends on the ratio of the maximum sustained wind speed and the TCs speed. • The shape of the omni-and directional spectra varies according to the TC class and to the distance from the center of the TC.
