Observations of velocities beneath wind-driven waves / by M.A. Donelan and K.K. Kahma. : En13-5/86-120E-PDF

"The hydrodynamics of deep water wave breaking (white-capping) is particularly relevant to the development of Canada's offshore conventional energy resources. New knowledge of it will be applied to engineering design, operational efficiency and safety, and environmental protection through improved wave forecasting and improved understanding of mixing processes. This report, sponsored in part by PERD, presents preliminary results obtained from field experiments in 1985"--Management perspective.
