Large-scale laboratory observations of wave breaking turbulence on a fixed barred beach

Creator:

Scott, Christopher P.

Abstract:

This thesis presents the details of a large-scale laboratory experiment to study the turbulence generated by waves breaking on a fixed barred beach. The data set includes comprehensive measurements of free surface displacement and fluid velocity for one random and one regular wave case. Observations of the time-averaged turbulent kinetic...
