英文摘要 | The whitecap coverage at the sea surface is affected by the ratio of kinetic energy to potential energy, , the wave spectrum width parameter, , and other factors. This paper validates an improved statistical theory for surface whitecap coverage. Based on the theoretical analysis, we find that the whitecap coverage is more sensitive to than to , and the improved statistical theory for surface whitecap coverage is suitable in regions of rough winds and waves. The satellite-derived whitecap coverage data in the westerly wind zone is used to validate the improved theory. The comparison between the results from theory and observations displays a better performance from the improved theory relative to the other methods tested. |
