## Abstract The form drag of wind on an irregular surface is found to equal the product of __U__^2^ (__U__ is anemometer wind‐speed) and a function of the two‐dimensional spectrum of this surface. For a solid surface this function is, of course, independent of __U__ and the form drag is proportiona

## 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
