Riding the crest : a tale of two wave experiments / by R.A. Weller, M.A. Donelan, M.G. Briscoe, N.E. Huang. : En13-5/90-125E-PDF
"This paper gives a general overview of two ocean wave experiments. The experimental goals of the Surface Wave Processes Program (SWAPP) and of the Surface Wave Dynamics Experiment (SWADE) are quite different but complementary. In general terms SWAPP is focused on local processes: principally wave breaking, upper mixed layer dynamics and microwave and acoustic signatures of wave breaking. SWADE, on the other hand, is concerned primarily with the evolution of the directional wave spectrum in both time and space, improved understanding of wind forcing and wave dissipation, the effect of waves on the air-sea coupling mechanisms and the radar response of the surface"--Abstract.
