description abstract | An experimental study has been undertaken within the U.K. Coastal Research Facility (CRF), located at HR Wallingford Ltd. Detailed measurements were made to examine the on–off shore spreading of a solute, mostly inside the surf zone, for shore normal waves combined with a longshore current. The results show that the on–off shore mixing is significantly increased by almost 70 times, when compared to current-only conditions. A theoretical advection–dispersion mixing mechanism has been postulated. Using suitable estimates for the turbulent diffusion and on–off shore wave-induced velocity, a theoretical approximation to the overall mixing within the surf zone can be obtained. This theoretical analysis suggests that the on–off shore mixing in the surf zone is proportional to | |
