Abstract

A theoretical expression for the joint disribution of wave height, period and direction is derived based on the hypothesis that sea surface is a Gaussian stochastic process and that a band-width of energy spectra is sufficiently narrow. The derived joint distribution is found to be an effective measure to investigate characteristics of three-dimensional random wave fields in shallow water through field measurements.
