## Abstract A monolayer on a water surface is affected by the action of wind, and retracts until the wind drag is counterβbalanced by the opposing surface pressure gradient. This effect has been used to determine the shearing stress on water at low wind speeds. Estimates of the drag coefficient hav

The scattering of long gravitational waves by a floating elastic plate is investigated using linear shallow-water theory. For a plate of arbitrary shape, the solution of the problem is reduced to a system of boundary integral equations. Using the example of a rectangular plate, the solution obtained
## Abstract Continuous records of water level were taken at four points on the perimeter of Lough Neagh in N. Ireland during April 1949. The values of level at each point were measured over threeβhourly intervals to eliminate the effect of seiches and the differences in the values of level so obtai
