Wind Input, Surface Dissipation and Directional Properties of Shoaling Waves

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project, which is a component of the Shoaling Waves DRI , is to better understand the energetics of shoaling surface gravity waves, and to use this new knowledge to improve predictive models of wave evolution in the coastal environment.
