Abstract
In this report the analytical and numerical formulations, testing
and calibration of the third generation wave hindcast model WAVEWATCH
are presented. WAVEWATCH is specially designed to operate in a com
bined wave-current model. The main attention is focussed on numerical
aspects of the model, including academic test cases and comparison
with other third generation wave models (which do not include current
effects). Furthermore, preliminary results of calculations for a south
westerly storm in the southern North Sea are presented to illustrate
the effects of wave-current interactions in the southern North Sea in
such conditions.
