Observations of wind-generated waves in Antarctic fast ice / Greg B. Crocker, Peter Wadhams.
Title: | Observations of wind-generated waves in Antarctic fast ice / Greg B. Crocker, Peter Wadhams. |
Author(s): | Crocker, Greg B. Wadhams, Peter. |
Date: | 1988. |
In: | Journal of Physical Oceanography. (1988.), Vol. 18(9) (1988) |
Abstract: | Observations made in McMurdo Sound over period of seven months during austral winter 1986, using rosette of three wire strainmeters. Data reveal, for first time, nature and magnitude of wind-induced flexural-gravity waves in Antarctic fast ice. Below threshold wind velocity, no resolvable waves are produced, but at wind speeds above threshold, wave energy increases significantly with increasing wind velocity. |
Notes: | Journal of Physical Oceanography. Vol. 18(9) :1292-1299 (1988). |
