Wave breaking generates large scale Coherent vortical Structures (CS). CS strongly control sediment motion and diffusion of tracers, thus deserving a thorough study. CS induced by a regular plunging wave are analyzed. Preliminary results provide information on CS location and turbulent length scales.

Abstract

Wave breaking generates large scale Coherent vortical Structures (CS). CS strongly control sediment motion and diffusion of tracers, thus deserving a thorough study. CS induced by a regular plunging wave are analyzed. Preliminary results provide information on CS location and turbulent length scales.
