Suspended sediment in a wave field / by M.G. Skafel and B.G. Krishnappan.: En37-148/1981E-PDF
"A series of photographs are presented which illustrates the ripple form and the kinematics of suspended sediment in a wave field. The strong shear on the local upstream side of the ripples and the subsequent vortex development on the downstream side is illustrated. Sediment is visible in the body of the fluid above the bed to a height equal to about one half the wavelength of the ripples"--Abstract, page i.
