Wind–Wave Interaction for Strong Winds
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2023Abstract In this paper, we revisit the problem of wind–wave interaction with emphasis on strong winds. For these events, it is assumed that nonlinearity is so large that the slope of the wind waves has reached a limiting steepness. Recent observations suggest that the drag decreases with wind in the strong wind speed regime.

THE EFFECT OF WINDS ON THE GRAVITY WAVE
Canadian Journal of Physics, 1962The effect of wind upon the gravity waves produced by a large explosion is considered. The uniform horizontal wind is applied to the hydrodynamic equations; application of perturbation techniques results in an equation for excess pressure which involves the wind velocity.

Energy Sources, 2004
Renewable energy is accepted as a key source for the future, not only for Turkey, but also for the world. This study investigates the potential for wind and wave power around the world and in Turkey, and provides an overview of the historical development of both energy resources.

On the bound wave scattering in a wind-wave tank
2011 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2011There exist bound gravity-capillary waves that move at the speed of dominate waves on the ocean surface, besides free gravity-capillary waves that satisfy the dispersion relation. The radar Doppler spectra are believed to be the sum of two parts: one is attributed to free waves, and the other is attributed to bound waves.

Waves in Interplanetary Shocks: A Wind/WAVES Study
Physical Review Letters, 2007We describe results from the first statistical study of waveform capture data during 67 interplanetary (IP) shocks with Mach numbers ranging from approximately 1-6. Most of the waveform captures and nearly 100% of the large amplitude waves were in the ramp region.

Bispectra of wind-waves and wave-wave interaction
Journal of Oceanography, 1977Bispectra of wind-waves in wind tunnels were calculated in order to understand the characteristics of the nonlinear wave-wave interaction in actual wind-wave field. It is shown that the nonlinearity in wind-waves increases in magnitude with the development of wind-waves and that the characteristics of nonlinearity in wind-waves in the early stage of ...

Nature, 1924
IN a letter published in NATURE on August 19, 1920, p. 777, I said that, judging from appearances, wind-formed waves increased in length only when the waves were in a “breaking” condition, and it was suggested that the breaking crests, by imparting their momentum to the upper strata of the water, and so establishing a gradually increasing surface ...

The wind field over wind-waves
Journal of the Oceanographical Society of Japan, 1976The velocity fluctuations of wind over wind-waves in a wind tunnel are measured with a X-type hot-wire anemometer at some heights over the water surface.

BERNSTEIN WAVES IN THE SOLAR WIND
1992Pronounced emission peaks at a series of frequencies in the electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) frequency range, observed at a lithium neutralgas release in the solar wind, are interpreted in terms of Bernstein waves (electrostatic waves in the ECH frequency range propagating perpendicular to the ambient magnetic field). The observed distinct frequencies
