After extracting turbulence, in addition to the standard analysis aiming to quantify the fluxes, i.e., the time-average and the phase-average levels of turbulence and vorticity (details are given in two former papers), a more in-depth description of the structure of turbulence Reynolds stress tensor is given, focussing on the invariants evolution in time and in the vertical. A relation between the components of the Reynolds stress tensor and of the dissipation tensor is depicted. This relation is finalised to possible models of turbulence in breaking waves.}, publisher = {MDPI}, keywords = {Breaking waves}, keywords = {Turbulence invariants}, keywords = {Laboratory experiments}, title = {Invariants of Turbulence Reynolds Stress and of Dissipation Tensors in Regular Breaking Waves}, doi = {10.3390/w9110893}, author = {Longo, Sandro and Clavero Gilabert, María and Chiapponi, Luca and Losada Rodríguez, Miguel Ángel}, }
