Swash zone shear stresses
Here, narrow regions of high onshore directed stress are observed to occur alternately between broad regions of smaller magnitude offshore-directed stress provided by skewed wave motions in the surf zone. Variations in the stress magnitude are also observed along the wave propagation direction and are related to the variations in wave dissipation at the bed and likely a lower-frequency wave component in the wave basin.
