Abstract
The behavior of buoyant discharges into reversing ambient crossflows is a complicated time-dependent phenomena which can not be predicted using current steady state modelling techniques. In this study, schematic laboratory experiments have been performed which represent typical industrial and municipal discharges into the unsteady coastal environment.
