Mean Depth given Ursell Number Formula Elements

Variables
Coastal Mean Depth
Coastal Mean Depth of a fluid flow is a measure of the average depth of the fluid in a channel, pipe, or other conduit through which the fluid is flowing.
Symbol: d
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Wave Height for Surface Gravity Waves
The Wave Height for Surface Gravity Waves refers to the vertical distance between the trough (bottom) and crest (top) of a wave, measured from sea level.
Symbol: Hw
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Deep-Water Wavelength
Deep-Water Wavelength is the horizontal distance between two successive crests (or troughs) of the wave.
Symbol: λo
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Ursell Number
Ursell Number is a dimensionless parameter used in fluid mechanics to characterize the nonlinearity or strength of nonlinearity in the wave motion of a fluid.
Symbol: U
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
