• Characterization of Extreme Wave Conditions for Wave Energy Converter Design and Project Risk Assessment

  Journal of Marine Science and Engineering · 2020 · 41 citations

  Senior authorCorresponding

  Best practices and international standards for determining n-year return period extreme wave (sea states) conditions allow wave energy converter designers and project developers the option to apply simple univariate or more complex bivariate extreme value analysis methods. The present study compares extreme sea state estimates derived from univariate and bivariate methods and investigates the performance of spectral wave models for predicting extreme sea states at buoy locations within several r…

• OceanNet: a principled neural operator-based digital twin for regional oceans

  Scientific Reports · 2024-09-11 · 30 citations

  articleOpen accessSenior author

  While data-driven approaches demonstrate great potential in atmospheric modeling and weather forecasting, ocean modeling poses distinct challenges due to complex bathymetry, land, vertical structure, and flow non-linearity. This study introduces OceanNet, a principled neural operator-based digital twin for regional sea-suface height emulation. OceanNet uses a Fourier neural operator and predictor-evaluate-corrector integration scheme to mitigate autoregressive error growth and enhance stability…

• Gulf Stream Near Cape Hatteras Modulates Sea Level Variability Along the Southeastern Coast of North America

  Geophysical Research Letters · 2025-04-01 · 4 citations

  articleOpen accessSenior authorCorresponding

  Abstract Studies suggest a strong link between low‐frequency sea level variability in the South Atlantic Bight (SAB) and open ocean dynamics. However, the mechanisms driving this connection remain unclear. By analyzing a high‐resolution, three‐dimensional baroclinic ocean reanalysis, we identify a pathway that links open ocean dynamics to SAB coastal sea level variability through the shelf edge near Cape Hatteras. Gulf Stream meanders in this region induce sea level fluctuations that propagate a…

• Winter-Spring dynamics of dissolved organic carbon fluxes driven by precipitation in a North Carolina tidal marsh

  Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science · 2025-05-15 · 4 citations

  articleOpen access

  The lateral transport of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is crucial in tidal marsh carbon budgets, but estimating DOC remains a challenge due to the dynamic nature of terrestrial-aquatic interfaces and limitations of in situ observations. This study used a linear model to correlate DOC and chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) absorption coefficient at 440 nm ( a CDOM (440); r 2 = 0.75) in Bald Head Creek, North Carolina, USA. Modeled DOC concentrations were merged with current velocity de…
