Abstract

That is, the shearing stress across horizontal surfaces and due to vertical shear and vertical (eddy) viscosity (Rossby, 1936b, p 6).2 By condition (b) is meant that the length offetch, the depth of water, and the time during which the wind has been blowing steadily are all suffciently great so that they have no effect on the wave form.
