Turbulent Fluxes Through the Sea Surface, Wave Dynamics, and Prediction

A primary aim of the NATO Science Committee since its estab­ lishment in 1958 has been to· further international scientific co­ operation among scientists from the member countries of the Alliance. Almost all fields of basic science have received sub­ stantial support for the purposes of enhancing e...
