Abstract
A series of observations was made on the surface waves on a reservoir half a mile wide and one mile in length in winds between 250 and 1300 cm/sec. A slight increase in wave period, and a considerable increase in wave height were observed when the air was colder than the surface water. The data obtained are compared with previous observations made on Abbott's Lagoon in California.Keywords
