Dynamics of the nearshore wave bottom boundary layer

Creator:

Foster, Diane Lyn

Abstract:

This thesis presents an examination of the nearshore wave bottom boundary layer under conditions of significant sediment response. Using both field observations and simple models, the response of the bottom boundary layer to random waves is shown to have a complex behavior. First, the linearized wave bottom boundary layer governing...

Beach foreshore response to long-period waves in the swash-zone

Creator:

Howd, Peter A.

Abstract:

A field experiment designed to test the hypothesis that infragravity and lower frequency waves influence the patterns of erosion and deposition on the beach foreshore has been carried out. The data show coherent fluctuations in the foreshore sediment level which can be related to low frequency wave motions. The fluctuations...
