Notes:
We extend recent works on oscillatory flows over rigid ripples and the instability of sand ripples under such flows, by considering the instability of sand ripples under partially standing surface waves over a finite water depth. The variation of unstable ripples within a wavelength of the standing waves and inferences on the ripple distribution over a sand bar are examined. The steady circulation due to the combined effects of waves and ripples are also discussed. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
