Wave Breaking Entrainment

Wave Breaking Entrainment is a physical process in air-sea interaction by which atmospheric air is incorporated into the ocean surface layer through the mechanical disruption and collapse of breaking waves, distinguishing it from other entrainment mechanisms by its direct dependence on wave instability and surface turbulence.
