对近岸区域的波浪和海流进行例行监测，在科学上和公众上都有很大的兴趣，因为它们在海岸线侵蚀中发挥作用，并对娱乐活动产生影响。从历史上看，测量这些量的技术是不同的，需要单独的仪器。在这方面的贡献，作者表明，这是可能的，在浅水中估计波高和方向从传统的底部安装，向上看声学多普勒流速剖面仪。高度和方向谱与压力计的共位阵列比较好。
Routine monitoring of waves and currents in the nearshore region is of great interest both scientifically and to the general public because of their role in coastline erosion and their impact on recreational activities. Historically, the technology for measuring these quantities has been distinct, requiring separate instrumentation for each. In this contribution the authors show that it is possible in shallow water to estimate both wave height and direction from a conventional bottom-mounted, upward-looking acoustic Doppler current profiler. Height and direction spectra compare well with a co-located array of pressure gages.
