国内裂流研究进展

Progress of rip current research in China

裂流是我国华南沿海地区较为频发的一种自然灾害。本文从国内裂流发生概况、裂流的研究历史以及研究进展等方面对裂流作出阐述,并与国外研究裂流的方法进行了对比。介绍了国外在现场观测运用的方法和设备、国内自研究裂流以来开展的物理模型试验、数值模型以及评价裂流风险的方法。展望了未来国内裂流的研究趋势。

Rip currents are natural disasters that frequently occur in the coastal areas of South China.In this paper,the general situation,research histories,and research progress of rip currents in China were described in detail,and they were compared with the method of studies abroad.Furthermore,the physical modelling experiments,numerical simulation models,and risk assessment methods of rip currents were introduced.The future research trend of rip currents was also presented.With its findings,this paper aims to provide some references for the further researches on rip current in China.
