#PhysRevE #Y2012 Nonlinear shallow ocean-wave soliton interactions on flat beaches, by Mark J. Ablowitz and Douglas E. Baldwin https://journals.aps.org/pre/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevE.86.036305 "M.J.A. observed these interactions in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico, and D.B. observed them on Venice Beach, California (2000 km away). Both authors take thousands of photographs. The water depth was shallow, usually between 5 and 20 cm; the beaches are long and relatively flat; the interactions usually happen within 2 hours before and after low tide; cross-waves produced near a jetty induce these interactions. These X- and Y-type interactions usually come in groups, which last a few minutes. Authors saw many X- and Y-type interactions each day of observations; the relative frequencies of the interactions were different at the two beaches—M.J.A. saw X-type interactions often than D.B."
