Boussinesq Modeling of Alongshore Swash Zone Currents

Abstract

The long-term goal of the study is to develop and integrate numerical models for the understanding and prediction of nearshore processes. The focus of the project is to develop the capability of modeling alongshore swash currents under field conditions based on Boussinesq-type formulations and field observations.
