Eugene Sharkov, of the Space Research Institute in Moscow, has here put together the most comprehensive description of the physical findings of an investigation into the spatio-temporal characteristics of the gravity of breaking waves. He?s also described the foam activity in the open sea using methods and instruments of optical and microwave remote sensing. Numerous practical applications and illustrations are provided from air-borne, ship-borne and laboratory up-to-date experiments.
Comprehensive description of the physical findings of an investigation into the spatio-temporal characteristics
Ground-breaking work, as no-one anticipated the gravity of breaking waves and the foam activity in open sea
Reviews the importance of attendant foam forming to ocean wave dynamics
