Observation and modelling of wave nonlinearities and infragravity waves in the nearshore

Wave nonlinearities have long been recognised as being among the main drivers of sediment transport in the coastal zone. However, there are still signi cant errors in the prediction of this transport associated, partially due to inaccurate predictions of the velocity nonlinearities. The infragravity...
