CORDOVA LOPEZ, Luis F.  and  GONZALEZ ESTOPINAN, Yinelis. Wave Field in Havana bay for different climatic scenarios. RIHA [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.2, pp. 3-17. ISSN 1680-0338.

This work presents a study of the wave field for different scenarios in Havana bay, Cuba. The analysis is carriedout for different climatic conditions and return periods of extreme events, including sea uprise due to climatic change. The results of this work will be of great help for the design of future works that will be executed in Havana bay. The simulation of the different scenarios is performed by means of the application of the mathematical model SWAN, which has been set over a curvilinear computational mesh which allows a better representation of variations in the coast line.

Keywords : bay; mathematical model; waves; winds.
