Surface Wave - Current Interaction

Surface Wave - Current Interaction is a physical oceanographic phenomenon characterized by the mutual influence between surface gravity waves and ambient ocean currents, distinguished by the exchange of momentum, energy, and mass that alters wave propagation, current structure, and upper ocean dynamics.
