| Research Abstract |
Measuring devices that are fixed to definite points are employed in the usual surf zone observations, which provide accurate time records of hydrodynamic items. The deployment of the instruments, however, is limited in most field experiments, which restricts the spatial understanding of the surf zone dynamics. In this context, a X-band radar system and moored video system are employed to obtain spatial data of the surf zone. Field experiments were conducted at HORS, a research pier located in Hasaki, Japan. Video and radar recording were conducted simultaneously to check the properties of radar echos. Frequent observations including several storm events were done with the radar. Results of the radar records demonstrated the potential of the system showing that the system is able to capture the run-up height of individual waves, longshore distributions of shoreline positions and inter-tidal foreshore slopes. Analyses of temporal variation of run-up positions revealed the existence of longshore propagation of edge wave. PIV analyses of instantaneous radar echo data showed the refraction pattern and depths inverted from local phase speeds of the waves
