Zusammenfassung

Es wird über Messungen der statistischen Verteilungen der vertikalen Auslenkung und Beschleunigung der Meeresobérfläche im Windseegang berichtet. Mit der als Meßgerät verwendetenPitch and Roll Buoy ließen sich keine markanten Abweichungen von der Gaußschen Normalverteilung feststellen.

Summary

Measurements of the statistical distributions of vertical displacement and acceleration of the surface in wind waves are discussed. The Pitch and Roll Buoy used as measuring gear did not provide any significant deviations from the Gauss standard distribution.

Résumé

Il est rendu compte de mesures des distributions statistiques de la déviation verticale et de l'accélération des eaux superficielles par mer agitée. Avec l'instrument de mesure employé, laPitch and Roll Buoy on n'a pas constaté d'écarts notables à la distribution normale de Gauss.
