Strong Coupling of Wind and Wind Waves
1992Observational evidence is presented that the wind and the wind waves are in strong coupling in their fluctuations. In this strong coupling the wave breaking should play an essential role. A 4.5-hour time series of wind profile and wind-wave statistics, obtained at an oceanographic tower station under a winter monsoon wind, were reanalyzed.

Wind forcing in the equilibrium range of wind-wave spectra
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2002A new analytical model is developed for the equilibrium range of the spectrum of wind-forced ocean surface gravity waves. We first show that the existing model of Phillips (1985) does not satisfy overall momentum conservation at high winds. This constraint is satisfied by applying recent understanding of the wind forcing of waves.

Proceedings of the European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference
Wave Dragon wave-wind project Wave power is more consistent than wind-, solar- and tidal power. Wave is at the same time more predictable than wind and solar. The paper assesses the economic performance of the different wave energy converter (WEC) types and discusses the possibility for WECs to match the levelized cost of energy for offshore wind ...

Duality of turbulence and wave in wind waves
Journal of the Oceanographical Society of Japan, 1974The three-seconds power law for wind waves of simple spectra, already derived byToba (1972 and 1973), may also be derived by introducing surface-wave properties into the form of the rate of energy dissipation in the theory of turbulence. The universal constantB, which was formerly determined empirically as 0.062 is here obtained asB=(2π)−3/2=0.0635 ...
