Zusammenfassung:The long-term goal of this program is to develop, by laboratory experimentation, theoretical analyses and comparisons with field observations, a basic understanding and, eventually, a predictive capability of the behavior of large bottom particles (cobbles) in the shoaling, wave-breaking and swash zones. The American Geophysical Union defines cobbles as particles in the diameter range 6.4 to 25.6 cm. Disk-shaped anti-tank mines are of similar size.
