  • On the nearshore impact of wave energy converter arrays

    Creator:
    O'Dea, Annika Magnuson
    Abstract:
    Radiation stresses, defined as the excess flow of momentum due to the presence of waves (Longuet-Higgins, 1964), are the main drivers behind the cross-shore and longshore forcing that results in wave setup, set-down, and longshore currents (e.g. Svendsen, 2006). Longshore currents entrain and transport sediment and therefore play an important...

  • On the Imaging of Rip Currents in X-band Radar

    Creator:
    Kloster, Rebecca
    Abstract:
    Rip currents pose a serious danger to visitors of bathing beaches; they are also an important process in surf zone circulation. Haller et al. [2014] demonstrated that shore-based X-band radar can be used to compliment in situ measurements of rip currents. However, little is known of the underlying radar imaging...
