A review of the turbulent mixing by wind wave breaking
|
Abstract:
It is formidable task to provide a comprehensive investigation of wave breaking and its turbulence process.In this review paper,the observations of turbulence by wave breaking and its parameterizations since 1990 are presented.Among them,the following are the most important.(1)Wave breaking induced turbulent mixing process cannot be described by the wall-layer theory,that is,the rate of dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy is not proportional to the inverse of water depth.In fact,a significant turbulent ...
