Now, Muglia and Miguel Canals just deployed two new Waverider buoys—one off the coast of North Carolina and the other off Puerto Rico. There, the surfers will collect detailed data on thesurface wavesin those areas of the Atlantic Ocean, adding to publicly available data sets on waves, cur...
Significant Wave Height (SWH) measurement data from the AltiKa Radar Altimeter (RA) for the first 13 cycles of satellite coverage are compared with the SWH from Wave Rider Buoys (WRB) located at nine stations along the Indian coast to assess the performance of the altimeter over the coastal ...
Measured data from DWR4 and Sofar Spotter buoys are comprehensively analysed.Both statistical analysis and wave-by-wave analysis are conducted.Nonlinear components are clearly identified in these semi-Lagrangian motion data.It is striking to observe that the DWR4 buoy overestimates horizontal displacement...

The paper presents the designs and algorithms of pendulum optoelectronic sensors for the measuring systems of waverider buoys and track railway machines along with the modeling results. Postprocessing algorithm for the data of the waverider buoy measuring system is given. It has been found that the...
Datawell Directional Waverider (DWR) and Sofar Spotter buoys are two commonly used types of wave-following measurement buoys, each with its unique features and capabilities. The DWR buoy is a well-established tool in oceanography, known for its precision and robustness (Datawell, 2023). An exam...
