This paper addresses the random wave-induced current in shallow water based on deep-water wind and wave statistics, where the wave-induced current is expressed in terms of the deep-water seastate wave parameters, significant wave height and mean zero-crossing wave period. The average statistical properties of the random wave-induced current in shallow water expressed in terms of the mean value and the standard deviation are presented. The results are exemplified by using long-term wind statistics from the northern North Sea and long-term wave statistics from the same ocean area. Overall, it appears that there is an agreement between the results based on these inputs from wind and wave statistics. The presented analytical method should be useful for making preliminary estimates of the random wave-induced drift in shallow water within seastates using either available deep-water wind statistics or deep-water wave statistics, which enhances the possibilities for assessing further the wave-induced current in, for example, near-coastal zones.

利用深水风浪统计，浅水随机波感应电流

本文根据深水风浪统计资料，研究了浅水随机波感应电流，其中波感应电流用深水海浪波参数，有效波高和平均零交叉波来表示。时期。给出了用均值和标准差表示的浅水随机波感应电流的平均统计特性。通过使用来自北海北部的长期风统计数据和来自同一海域的长期海浪统计数据来举例说明结果。总体而言，基于风和海浪统计数据的这些输入结果之间似乎存在共识。
