Undertow (water waves): In physical oceanography, undertow is the undercurrent that moves offshore while waves approach the shore. Undertow is a natural and universal feature for almost any large body of water; it is a return flow compensating for the onshore-directed average ...

Dispersion (water waves): In fluid dynamics, dispersion of water waves generally refers to frequency dispersion, which means that waves of different wavelengths travel at different phase speeds. Water waves, in this context, are waves propagating on the water surface, with gravity and surface ... (Physics) [100%] 2023-12-01 [Water waves] [Wave mechanics]...
Boussinesq approximation (water waves): In fluid dynamics, the Boussinesq approximation for water waves is an approximation valid for weakly non-linear and fairly long waves. The approximation is named after Joseph Boussinesq, who first derived them in response to the observation by John Scott ... (Water waves) [86%] 2023-12-11 [Fluid dynamics] [Water waves]...
Waves and shallow water: When waves travel into areas of shallow water, they begin to be affected by the ocean bottom. The free orbital motion of the water is disrupted, and water particles in orbital motion no longer return to their original position. (Physics) [86%] 2023-12-12 [Water waves]
