Abstract

Coastal surface waves are critical in studying the complex marine systems and have large-scale implications on coastal engineering applications. Waves can be observed in all sizes and forms in water open to the atmosphere, depending on magnitude of the forces acting on the water [1]. Therefore, different categories of surface waves exist. One way to characterize them is based on their distinct temporal scales, associated with various generating mechanisms. For example, wind waves have a typical period of 16 seconds or smaller, which are generated locally when wind blowing over the water surface.
