Increasing ocean wave energy observed in Earth’s seismic wavefield since the late 20th century

Posted by in category: energy

Ocean waves induce geographically extensive seafloor forces that excite a continuous and globally detectable seismic wavefield. This study infers global near-coastal average wave energy intensification at a rate of 0.27% per year since the late 1980’s, and 0.35% per year since January 2000.
