A combined stokes drift profile under swell and wind sea
Abstract A combined directional Stokes drift profile for swell and wind sea is presented. The profile can be used to calculate the shear under crossing seas and as such is relevant for Langmuir turbulence and Stokes-Coriolis forcing, but also for material advection. The swell is represented as eithe...
