Abstract

This paper presents a general theory for the apparent energy distribution of sea waves. Using the joint distribution of wave periods and heights proposed earlier by the second author

the authors define the generalized apparent energy distribution and derive the analytical form of the so called generalized outer frequency spectrum ornth-order frequency spectrum. Some possible relationships between it and the Fourier frequency spectrum are discussed. It is shown that the widely used Bretschneider spectrum can be easily obtained from the above definition and that generalized outer frequency spectrum has equilibrium range with exponent −(n+3) whose upper limit is −3.
