| Popis: | The horizontal circulations caused by the combined effect of the bottom oscillatory boundary layer (Stokes layer) and a sloping bed have been investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The generating mechanism is analogous to that for horizontal circulation induced by wind or by density variation. This horizontal circulation can account for a part of the tidal residual current observed in a tidal hydraulic model. |
