This book addresses both fundamental and applied aspects of ocean
waves including the use of wave observations made from satellites.
More specifically it describes the WAM model, its scientific basis,
its actual implementation, and its many applications. The three
sections of the volume describe the basic statistical theory and
the relevant physical processes; the numerical model and its global
and regional applications; and satellite observations, their
interpretation and use in data assimilation.
