Parameterization of sea surface drag under varying sea state and its dependence on wave age

Momentum and energy exchange at air-sea interface through wind stress is very important for air-sea interaction studies, ocean modeling, and climate studies. The accurate representation of wind stress, in terms of drag coefficient, is a key factor in estimating the momentum transfer at the interface...
