About

1.1 PURPOSE This publication provides surf forecasting guidance to naval personnel assigned to support amphibious operations, to include those collecting surf-zone data, those determining where and when a landing is suitable, and those requesting support during the planning and execution phases of an amphibious operation. The surf zone extends between the outermost breakers and the highest point on shore reached by the breaking waves. This chapter provides a review of many of the basic terms used to characterize the topography of the surf zone and a quick summary of some general effects that weather can have on amphibious operations. It concludes with a brief refresher on the various phases of an amphibious operation. Subsequent chapters focus on specific issues and activities associated with surf forecasting.
