The percentage error then exceeds 100% for a wind speed of only 50 limes the surface current. 3. Three-drag body problem When the drifter is drogued at depth z, there arc three drag bodies to consider and it is necessary to invert (3) numerically. Some examples of these cal- culations are given in Figs. 2-4. These calculations are most conveniently depicted in a coordinate system oriented in the direction of the subsurface current V*. Also, the magnitude of this current is fixed at unity. The inputs for the calculation are the areas and drag coefficients for the three drag bodies (Table 1) and the magnitudes of the surface current and wind T" ij â¢â .00 â - 0 00. |Vs|-5 x|vz| |V$|* x|vz| |v0|=5o x|vz| X-VELOCITY Fig. 2.
