In this paper, three nonlinear methods are described for artificially generating operational sea state histories. In the first method, referred to as Translated Gaussian Process the observed time series is transformed to a process which is supposed to be Gaussian. This Gaussian process is simulated and back transformed. The second method, called Local Grid Bootstrap, consists in a resampling algorithm for Markov chains within which the transition probabilities are estimated locally. The last models is a Markov Switching Autoregressive model which allows in particular to model different weather types.

In this study we focus on stochastic analysis methods for selective simulations, and we consider the extreme midspan moment of a fast-moving ship subjected to random Gaussian waves. We concentrate on analysis within a stationary sea state and our purpose is to accurately estimate hourly maximum ship response (compared with the correct result per hour) within a sea state with as little computational resources as possible. We consider how the use of a limited number of short simulations with "critical wave episodes" (short wave segments which are likely candidates to produce extreme response in the simulated hour-long history) reduces the cost of nonlinear time-domain ship response analysis.

During the WACSIS field experiment, wave elevation time series data were collected over the period December 1997 to May 1998 on and near the Meetpost Nordwijk platform off the coast of the Netherlands from an EMI laser, a Saab radar, a Baylor Wave Staff, a Vlissingen step gauge, a Marex radar and a Directional Waverider. This paper reports and interprets, with the help of simultaneous dual video recordings of the ocean surface, an intercomparison of both single wave and sea state wave parameters.

Wind and waves have particularly significant influence upon exertion of naval vessels battle effectiveness. It is urgently necessary to improve the ability of the Navy to carry out combat service in severe sea state normally. This paper aims to obtain the accurate prediction of ship motions with second level predictable time in real waves. According to the characteristics of the ship motion, the research on extremely short-time prediction of ship motion has been carried out based on multi-variable chaotic time series analysis, and the effectiveness of the prediction of ship motion in real wave is highly improved.

Several stochastic models, known as Box and Jenkins or SARIMA (Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) have been used in the past for forecasting hydrological time series in general and stream flow or spring discharge time series in particular. SARIMA models became very popular because of their simple mathematical structure, convenient representation of data in terms of a relatively small number of parameters and their applicability to stationary as well as nonstationary process.Application of the seasonal stochastic model SARIMA to the spring's monthly discharge time series for the period 1974-1993 in Krania Elassona karst system yielded the following results. Logarithms of the monthly spring discharge time series can be simulated on a SARIMA (4,1,1)(1,1,1)12 type model. This type of model is suitable for the Krania Elassona karst system simulation and can be utilised as a tool to predict monthly discharge values at Kafalovriso spring for at least a 2 year period. Seasonal stochastic models SARIMA seem to be capable of simulating both runoff and groundwater flow conditions on a karst system and also easily adapt to their natural conditions.Adapting the proper stochastic model to the karst groundwater flow conditions offers the possibility to obtain accurate short term predictions, thus contributing to rational groundwater resources exploitation and management planning
