A Simple, Regional Characterization of Wave-Generated Ripple

Abstract

The goal of this study is to provide a simple, regional characterization of wave-generated ripple spacing, height and orientation through time. The approach is being tested against data collected during the Ripple DRI in association with the SAX04 field experiments as well as future Ripple DRI field campaigns.
