Observations of the wind -wave spectrum and steep wave statistics in open ocean waters
The experimental data from the Southern Ocean Waves Experiment (SOWEX) and the Duck, North Carolina experiment (DNC) is used to investigate validity of the Hara-Belcher equilibrium spectrum for wind-waves under open ocean conditions. Wavenumber spectral calculations admit saturation spectra which wh...
