Abstract

Results of high resolution sea wave modeling are treated within the theory of wave (weak) turbulence. Spatial resolution 1 km is shown likely to be excessive and lead to appearance of artificial structures in fields of wave periods and steepness.
The research was supported by the state assignment of IO RAS, theme 0149-2019-0002.
