Lagrangian transport by deep-water surface gravity wavepackets: effects of directional spreading and stratifcation
The Lagrangian mass transport by non-dissipating surface gravity wavepackets consists of the Stokes drift and the wave-induced return flow. We examine how directional spreading and density stratification affect this mass transport for an isolated non-dissipating wavepacket in deep water using a pert...
