报告摘要：Darwin Harbour (DH), Australia, is a flood-dominated estuary where the wave substantially influences sediment resuspension and transportation, especially in the outer harbour. Hence, the prediction of waves is crucial for coastal activities and management in DH. This paper presents a graph neural network (GNN) model to forecast wave characteristics in the nearshore zone of DH. The model was assigned for next-frame prediction of wave parameters such as significant wave height, peak period, wavelength, velocity, and wave period. This implies that the model had been configured to project future features by assessing parameters at a specific domain and timeframes. The GNN framework is intended to identify graph dependence via message passing between the nodes. Input of the model is the wave findings from 62-days simulation of the SWAN model. The study was carried out among 7194 nodes, and each node was linked to 5 neighbour nodes to forecast dependencies accurately. The data has been split into 80% and 20% for training and testing purposes. Furthermore, the significance of the number of hours as an input on anticipated outcomes was investigated. The results reveal that GNN model can replicate wave variables from physics-based model with mean-squared errors less than 0.14% and coefficients of r-squared more than 71%. Moreover, it demonstrates that increasing the number of hours for input and time steps for forecasting reduces the model’s performance. As such, the proposed GNN model can be useful for wave prediction and can be integrated with traditional coastal modelling to examine coastal phenomena.
