Figure 2. Surf Wave Calculator. Upper Panel: the blue line is the significant wave height, the green line is the theoretical breaking significant wave height, the red point indicates the breakpoint located where the two lines meet. Middle panel: blue arrows are the mean wave directions outside the surf zone, red arrows indicate the mean wave direction at the breakpoint. Lower panel: the solid line is the beach bottom profile, the red dot indicates the breaking water depth.
