Journal ArticleDOI
Kinematics of breaking waves
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the amplitude of the breaking wave is a function of the wave height and the phase difference between waves and horizontal velocities, and that most of the motion in the body of breaking waves is wave-induced and not turbulent.
MonographDOI
The Kinematics of Water Particle Velocities of Breaking Waves within the Surf Zone.
TL;DR: In this paper, the results showed that linear wave theory underpredicted wave-induced horizontal velocity spectral components by about 50 percent at the frequency of peak energy and compared to Gaussian and Gram-Charlier distributions using the chi-square goodness-of-fit test.
