The undertow is one of important factors which causes the disastrous erosion of beach. So far, the problems of this phenomenon have been treated both theoretically and experimentally by many investigators especially for elucidating the mechanics of transport of sediment. In order to establish the theory of undertow, it is essential to estimate quantitatively the vorticity of large-scale vortices induced on the water surface by breaking waves, because it is also one of main boundary conditions for solving the basic equation of undertow. The present paper describes a method of theoretical predictions for estimating vorticity of large-scale vortices induced by breaking waves. In comparison of this model with other experimental and analytical results, it is found that this theoretical prediction is very useful in application for estimating vorticity of large-scale vortices induced on the water surface by breaking waves.
