Oceanographic and Meteorological Conditions during a Ship Mooring Force Study.
The objectives of this experiment were to determine mooring loads on cables mooring a ship in the open and to collect data on the environmental forces (waves, currents, and wind) producing these loads. Waves and current data collected about 3 km from shore at Duck, North Carolina, are summarized. Si...
