Abstract
A technique for calculating viscous drift on the slopes of waves in the zone of their generation is proposed. Viscous stress is calculated for the wave’s front slope and the water-air interface. The calculations are performed with allowance for the eddies that form in the expanding viscous layer of wind flow and the deforming of the water’s surface. The technique is validated on the basis of experimental data.
