2 Introduction Wave elevation measurement Accurate measurements of surface wave elevation ζ are crucial for many coastal applications: wave overtopping and submersion navigation and platform safety wave-induced sediment transport

3 Introduction Wave elevation measurement Direct measurement of the surface elevation highly accurate measurement Acoustic surface tracking AST Lidar scanning expensive difficult to deploy and fragile AST sensitive to air bubbles and turbidity lidar requires the presence of nearshore structures Nortek Martins et al 2018

4 Introduction Wave elevation measurement Pressure sensors are still a very useful tool for measuring waves Pressure sensor z z = ζ(x 0,t) cheap easy to deploy robust (storms, bottom trawling, ) Ocean Sensor Systems δ m P m (x 0,t) x 0 x not sensitive to air bubbles and turbidity not a direct measurement of ζ methods for recovering ζ

5 Introduction Wave elevation measurement Commonly used reconstruction methods and their limitations Pressure sensor z z = ζ(x 0,t) Ocean Sensor Systems δ m P m (x 0,t) x 0 x

6 Introduction Commonly used reconstruction methods long waves: tsunamis, tides, hydrostatic reconstruction z z = ζ(x 0,t) h 0 δ m x 0 P m (x 0,t) x = ρ 0gg h HH (xx 0, tt) = P m P a ρ 0 gg + δ mm ζ HH = P m P a ρ 0 gg + δ mm h 0

7 Introduction Commonly used reconstruction methods swell, wind-generated waves non-hydrostatic reconstruction

8 Introduction Commonly used reconstruction methods swell, wind-generated waves non-hydrostatic reconstruction recover the wave field by means of a transfer function based on linear theory transfer function method z z = ζ(x 0,t) h 0 δ m x 0 P m (x 0,t) x pressure response factor ζ LL ω = cosh(h 0 kk ) cosh δ mm kk ζ HH ω ζ HH = P m P a ρ 0 gg + δ mm h 0 ω 2 = gg kk tanh h 0 kk ω

9 Introduction Commonly used reconstruction methods swell, wind-generated waves non-hydrostatic reconstruction transfer function method gives reasonable estimates for bulk wave parameters such as H s Guza and Thornton 1980, Bishop and Donelan 1987, Tsai et al. 2005, fails to describe the shape of nonlinear nearshore waves lidar scanner ζ linear reconstruction ζ L ζ Martins et al. 2017, BARDEX II, h 0 =1.17 m, T p =12.1 s provides a poor description of the peaky and skewed shape of nonlinear waves underestimates the individual wave height by up to 30 %

10 Introduction Nonlinear reconstruction methods There is a critical need for nonlinear reconstruction methods Constantin 2012, Deconinck et al. 2012, Olivears et al. 2012, Clamond, 2013 periodic waves of permanent form Oliveras et al heuristic approximation for irregular waves
