Description
English: Periodic waves in shallow water. The original caption read: "As they near shallow water close to the coast of Panama, huge deep-sea waves, relics of a recent storm, are transformed into waves that have crests, but little or no troughs. A light breeze is blowing diagonally across the larger waves to produce a cross-chop. Three Army bombers, escorted by a training ship, are proceeding from Albrook Field, Canal Zone, to David, Panama." (in: National Geographic 63 (1933).)
