An experimental study of collective sea state modes of deep water surface gravity waves

Experimental tests of the theory of collective sea state modes of deep water surface gravity waves were made in a 20 meter long, 1.1 meter wide wind-wave tank. First, bursts of broadband wave energy were injected into the upwind end of the tank with a paddle. According to wave turbulence theory and...
