The study looked at how waves affect currents near a tri-cuspate beach in the UK. They measured wave height, current patterns, and rip currents. The flow patterns showed longshore currents feeding into rip currents. Rip currents reached high speeds but were mostly two-dimensional. In the surf-zone, fast currents occurred near the bed. For waves at an angle, a stable longshore current formed with a specific speed and profile. The data can help improve models of wave-current interaction in the nearshore area.
