A SP1LLING BREAKER

Wben a w*vc rolls across a gemly slopmg bottom into evcr shallowcr watcr. it gradualty stccpcns along its shorcward face until its crcst begins to spili into the trough ahead of the wavc in a leisureły Cascade that slowly drains away the energy of the wave.

A PLUNGING BREAKER

On a steep bcach. a wave qukkly mects watcr too shallow to susrain its advance. Its crcst arches forward unsupported. collapses around a pocket of trapped air. then rushes up the bcach in what are known as waves of translation bclorc retreating as baekwash

ASURGING BREAKER

On a bcach that is very steep, an incoming wavc hcaves up sharply m the abruptly shoaling watcr, and then collapses into itself aa the base of the wave outruns the crcst, surging up the bcach in a foamy shcct of swash that undermmes the wavc form.
