Langmuir Turbulence Effects on Coastal Surface Waves by Jiehua Wu, Peng Wang

“…Due to the difficulty in resolving Langmuir turbulence in ocean models, its effect is usually parameterized. In this study, we implement a Langmuir turbulence parameterization into a coupled wave–circulation model and use it to investigate the effects of Langmuir turbulence on the evolution of surface waves under upwelling-favorable wind conditions over an idealized continental shelf. …”
