Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book showcases a system for utilizing radar to capture images of waves in the coastal zone to obtain wave direction information. The method serves as a stepping stone in solving coastal engineering problems that were previously difficult or impossible to address due to a lack of wave direction data. The book not only delves into the details of the radar system itself but also provides a comprehensive examination of radar theory, scattering mechanisms, and the challenges encountered when using radar to image waves. Additionally, comparisons between wave data gathered via radar and data from other sources are provided, demonstrating the accuracy and reliability of the radar system. Moreover, the book offers valuable insights into the broader field of radar technology, including discussions on additional radar devices and direction-measuring systems. Ultimately, this book represents a significant contribution to the field of coastal engineering, providing a powerful tool for researchers and practitioners alike to better understand and address coastal wave phenomena.
