Abstract Surface vector wind datasets from scatterometers provide essential high-resolution surface forcing information for analyses and models of global atmosphere–ocean processes affecting weather and climate. The importance of realistic amplitude, high-wavenumber, surface wind forcing from scatterometer data has been demonstrated in a variety of ...

Breaking of wind waves and the sea surface wind stress
Journal of the Oceanographical Society of Japan, 1970In the conventional treatment of the coefficient of sea surface wind stress by plotting it against 10-m wind speed, there are inevitable discrepancies among results of various investigators. The reason is considered to lie primarily in the fact that the state of the sea surface or of waves is disregarded, which may have great influence on the sea ...

Linkages of stress, reverse stress and wind-down
Journal of Securities Operations & Custody, 2017Companies are increasing their global footprints every day, in addition to their already complex corporate structures, business models and competition against peer firms. Furthermore, companies have to survive in ever-changing markets facing challenges, such as geopolitical effects, macroeconomics, regulatory and technology developments, to name but a ...

The dependence of wind stress on wave height and wind speed
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1991Three near‐neutral boundary layer data sets were investigated with the aim of finding a dependence of wind stress on both wind speed and significant wave height. The data set most representative of open ocean wave height, wind speed, and momentum flux conditions, was selected and analyzed by means of the least squares method to produce a new ...

Wind stress on water: An hypothesis
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1955AbstractThe form drag of wind on an irregular surface is found to equal the product of U2 (U is anemometer wind‐speed) and a function of the two‐dimensional spectrum of this surface. For a solid surface this function is, of course, independent of U and the form drag is proportional to U2, as observed over land.

Wind Stress Analysis Simplified
Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers, 1934One of the most difficult problems that the structural engineer must solve is the analysis of stresses in a continuous frame in which joint displacements occur.

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1956
Various attempts to estimate the total wind stress at the sea surface are briefly reviewed, and the difficulties in the application of the methods used in the past are discussed. The results obtained under natural conditions, that is over larger bodies of water, such as the open sea or large lakes, agree fairly well with each other ...

The Stress of Light Winds on the Sea
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1957Values of the stress of light winds on the sea put forward by Neumann [11] are questioned. They are inconsistent with other data and with some new observations of wind profiles made over the open sea.
