Coastal-trapped waves off the coast of South Africa : Generation, propagation and current structures

Coastal sea level variations from six sites around South Africa are used to establish the characteristics of coastal-trapped wave (CTW) propagation. Substantial amplitudes (> 50 cm) are found along the south coast, but further propagation on the east coast against the Agulhas Current is inhibited...
