Variables Used
Energy Dissipation - Energy Dissipation is the process by which the kinetic or potential energy of water waves, currents, or tides is converted into other forms of energy.
Decay Coefficient in Coastal Engi. - Decay Coefficient in Coastal Engi.is the loss in cell mass due to the oxidation of internal storage products for energy for cell maintenance.
Water Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Water Depth of the considered catchment. Water depth means the depth as measured from the water level to the bottom of the considered water body.
Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area - (Measured in Joule per Square Meter) - Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area is the ratio of power per unit crest length to wave group speed.
Wave Group Speed in Coastal Eng. - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wave Group Speed in Coastal Eng. of a wave is the velocity with which the overall envelope shape of the wave's amplitudes.
Energy Flux associated with Stable Wave Height - Energy Flux associated with Stable Wave Height is the rate of transfer of energy through a surface.
