Experimental and Numerical Studies on Wave Breaking Characteristics over a Fringing Reef under Monochromatic Wave Conditions

Figure 5

Cross-shore variations of the wave heights (circles), the wave crest levels (triangles), the wave trough levels (inverse triangles), and the mean water level (squares). All symbols are the experimental results and lines are the numerical model results (one-layer model: dashed lines; two-layer model: solid lines). The bottom figure is the fringing reef profile and the free surface level (case ID: M501308 through M502208).
