## 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

## Abstract Values for the shear stress Ο~0~ of the wind on a water surface, found in seven later experiments, are compared with the data of Francis (1951). Four sets of the new data show that the stress coefficient __C__ = Ο~0~/Ο±u^2^ is not constant, but that it increases somewhat with windspeed u
