Surf Zone Currents. Volume II. Annotated Bibliography.
Abstract
This report (Vol. II) and a companion report entitled, State of Knowledge of Surf Zone Currents (Vol. I) are part of a major new study of coastal currents initiated by the Coastal Engineering Research Center in 1979. The two reports provide a state-of-the-art summary of theories and experiments investigated since 1967. The articles of primary interest in this bibliography discuss analytical theories, laboratory and field experiments, and numerical simulations of nearshore and surf zone currents. Also included are related articles on measurement technology, instrumentation to conduct experiments, and the following subareas: wave thrust (radiation stress), wave setdown and setup, bed shear in oscillatory flow, edge waves, wave breaking, bore theory, and momentum and energy fluxes in the surf zone.
