Depth-limited Wave Breaking

Depth-Limited Wave Breaking is a hydrodynamic phenomenon in coastal fluid dynamics wherein wave instability and subsequent breaking are triggered primarily by the reduction of water depth, distinguishing it from breaking induced by wind forcing, wave steepness, or other non-depth-related mechanisms.
