Field Observations of the Evolution of Plunging‐Wave Shapes

Abstract There are few high‐resolution field observations of the water surface during breaking owing to the difficulty of collecting spatially dense measurements in the surf zone, and thus the factors influencing breaking‐wave shape in field conditions remain poorly understood. Here, the shape and e...
