Abstract
We investigate the motion of infinitesimal particles in the how held i
nside the fluid under a traveling surface wave. It is shown that, even
for two-dimensional waves, a superposition of two or more traveling h
armonic waves is enough to generate chaotic particle motion, i.e., Lag
rangian chaos. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
