- Abstract
- This paper describes a comprehensive field experiment aimed at determining the form of the asymptotic, depth-limited wind-wave spectrum. The data clearly defines the limit in terms of total energy and peak frequency. In addition, the forms of both the frequency and wavenumber spectra are defined. The influence of nonlinear processes and Doppler shifting are clear. As a result of these processes, the usefulness of the frequency spectrum in such depth-limit ed conditions is questioned.
