Wind-induced drift of objects at sea: the leeway field method [PDF]
, 2011 A method for conducting leeway field experiments to establish the drift properties of small objects (0.1-25 m) is described. The objective is to define a standardized and unambiguous procedure for condensing the drift properties down to a set of ...
