wavespectra.construct.frequency.gaussian(freq, hs, fp, gw, **kwargs)[source]#

Gaussian frequency spectrum (Bunney et al., 2014).

Parameters:
  • freq (-) – Frequency array (Hz).

  • hs (-) – Significant wave height (m).

  • fp (-) – Peak wave frequency (Hz).

  • gw (-) – Gaussian width parameter \(\sigma\) (m2s).

Returns:

Gaussian frequency spectrum E(f) (m2s).

Return type:

  • efth (SpecArray)

Note

  • The spectra are scaled so that \(4\\sqrt{m_0} = hs\).

  • If two or more input args other than freq are DataArrays, they must share the same coordinates.
