    Focusing Wave Group Propagating in Finite Depth in the Presence of Surface Current and Vorticity

    The kinematics of two-dimensional focusing wave trains on a shearing flow in water of finite depth are investigated analytically. In the absence of waves, the vorticity due to the vertical gradient of the hori...
