Abstract
Various properties of wave breaking in the sea have been investigated by several authors, but none of these has proved to be very satisfactory in predicting wave breaking events. As this phenomenon is highly nonlinear, a fresh attempt is made to discriminate breaking waves, using real data from a wave tank, based primarily on the third-order statistics. It is shown that bispectral analysis offers a possible solution to the problem of predicting breaking wave events from a given time series
