Behavior of a wave‐driven buoyant surface jet on a coral reef

A wave‐driven surface‐buoyant jet exiting a coral reef was studied in order to quantify the amount of water reentrained over the reef crest. Both moored observations and Lagrangian drifters were used to study the fate of the buoyant jet. To investigate in detail the effects of buoyancy and alongshor...
