  2. Drift waves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drift_waves

    The characteristic frequency associated with drift waves involving electron flow [5] is given by = (), where is the wavenumber perpendicular to the pressure gradient of the plasma, is the Boltzmann constant, is the electron temperature, is the elementary charge, is the background magnetic field and is the number density gradient of the plasma.

  3. Undertow (water waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undertow_(water_waves)

    An exact relation for the mass flux of a nonlinear periodic wave on an inviscid fluid layer was established by Levi-Civita in 1924. [9] In a frame of reference according to Stokes' first definition of wave celerity, the mass flux of the wave is related to the wave's kinetic energy density (integrated over depth and thereafter averaged over wavelength) and phase speed through:

  4. Dadish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dadish

    Dadish 2 is the second installment of the series. Its initial release was on January 17, 2021, for iOS and Android. A day later, on January 18, it was added to Nintendo Switch and Poki Games. It was later added to PlayStation 4 on August 27, 2021, then to the Xbox One on October 27, 2021.

  5. Longshore drift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longshore_drift

    Longshore drift from longshore current is a geological process that consists of the transportation of sediments (clay, silt, pebbles, sand, shingle, shells) along a coast parallel to the shoreline, which is dependent on the angle of incoming wave direction. Oblique incoming wind squeezes water along the coast, generating a water current that ...

  6. Stokes drift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_drift

    Stokes drift – besides e.g. Ekman drift and geostrophic currents – is one of the relevant processes in the transport of marine debris. [1] For a pure wave motion in fluid dynamics, the Stokes drift velocity is the average velocity when following a specific fluid parcel as it travels with the fluid flow.

  7. Spit (landform) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spit_(landform)

    The drift occurs due to waves meeting the beach at an oblique angle, moving sediment down the beach in a zigzag pattern. This is complemented by longshore currents, which further transport sediment through the water alongside the beach. These currents are caused by the same waves that cause the drift. [1] [2] [3]

  8. Rip current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rip_current

    [2] Rip currents occur wherever there is strong longshore variability in wave breaking. This variability may be caused by such features as sandbars, by piers and jetties, and even by crossing wave trains. They are often located in places where there is a gap in a reef, or low area on a sandbar. Rip currents, once they have formed, may deepen ...

  9. Pocky & Rocky - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pocky_&_Rocky

    Taito licensed the brand to Natsume in the early 1990s, who developed two new games in the series for the Super Nintendo. Natsume retitled the game for an international release, giving them the names Pocky & Rocky (1992) and Pocky & Rocky 2 (1994). [1] Altron developed and published Pocky & Rocky with Becky for the Game Boy Advance in 2001. [1]
