This book records the proceedings of the "Wind Over Waves" conference of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications at Churchill College, Cambridge. It addresses ocean wave processes and turbulence as they affect oceanography, meteorology, marine and coastal engineering. It will enable applied mathematicians, seafarers, and all others affected by these phenomena to predict and control wave effects on shipping safety, weather forecasting, offshore structures, sediment pollution, and ice dynamics in polar regions.
