Dynamics of winds and currents coupled to surface waves

PP Sullivan, JC McWilliams - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2010 - annualreviews.org
We discuss the coupling processes between surface gravity waves and adjacent winds and
currents in turbulent boundary layers. These processes mediate exchanges of momentum …

The wind-and wave-driven inner-shelf circulation

SJ Lentz, MR Fewings - Annual review of marine science, 2012 - annualreviews.org
The inner continental shelf, which spans water depths of a few meters to tens of meters, is a
dynamically defined region that lies between the surf zone (where waves break) and the …

The contribution of wind-generated waves to coastal sea-level changes

G Dodet, A Melet, F Ardhuin, X Bertin, D Idier… - Surveys in …, 2019 - Springer
Surface gravity waves generated by winds are ubiquitous on our oceans and play a
primordial role in the dynamics of the ocean–land–atmosphere interfaces. In particular, wind …
