Тезаурус:
- forever "Scaramouche" buckling a swash.
- She does not belong in that unpeopled swash of sunset above the dunes and the sea.
- "O lumme yes, jolly good show and all that, knife throwing and juggling and dancing, gosh - behind you mister, watch out for the crocodile Cap'n Hook, pass another bottle of grog Tinkers old mate, and may your swash never buckle."
- With this type of wave the swash, or rush of water up the beach from the breaking wave, is weak as the water plunges directly on to the beach.
- Swash letters
- If a beach is ridged at right angles to the land the swash will diverge from the ridges into the furrows, while the backwash will be concentrated into the furrows, thus leading to scouring in them.
- It has already been noted that the swash often tends to push shingle up the beach, while the backwash is incapable of moving it down again.
- The backwash is reduced in energy by the percolation of water into the shingle, so that the backwash is not necessarily able to return the material carried forward by the swash in spite of the fact that it is combined with the effect of gravity, whereas the swash is acting against gravity.
- Obviously, such a current cannot affect the transport of material in the swash zone, but it may greatly help transport by saltation and suspension in the breaker zone.
- The result is a powerful swash which moves material up the beach.
- In recent years it has been generally held that the backwash down the beach contributes to the breaking of the next wave, becomes involved in it and is returned with the swash, so that there is no continuous undertow transferring water out beyond the breaker zone.
- Thus, an already weak swash is further impeded in its movement up the beach by interference from the backwash of the wave before.
