Remote measurements of waves and currents over complex bathymetry

Creator:

Chickadel, Carmine C. (Carmine Christopher)

Abstract:

Waves are the primary input of energy in the nearshore region, and together with the currents forced through the transfer of momentum that occurs during the wave breaking process they are the principal mechanism for sediment transport in the nearshore. The basic physics of waves and currents are thought to...
