Theory of Turbulent Viscosity in Wave Motion (K Teorii Turbulentnoy Vyazkosti v Volnovom Divishenii),

Abstract

At the initial stage of development of wind waves in the sea, the energy dissipation is determined by the molecular viscosity. This report discusses various theoretical models of turbulence in wave motion and compares them with existing indirect and empirical data.
