A dataset on wave propagation through vegetation with coexisting currents

This dataset was prepared to explore the effect
of currents on wave dissipation by vegetation (hereafter referred as WDV) by
conducting flume experiments with stiff plant mimics in combined wave-flow
conditions. Two flume experiments with following and adverse currents were
carried out respectively in a 40-m-long and 0.8-m-wide wave flume of the Fluid
Mechanics Laboratory at Delft University of Technology and in a 26-m-long,
0.6-m-wide, 0.6-m-high wave flume in Sun Yat-sen University. Wave height data,
velocity data and force data were obtained in these two flume experiments. Notably,
drag coefficient data were calculated using calibration method and direct
measurement method. The data sets presented here includes the wave data, velocity
data, force data, velocity profile and drag coefficient.
