Ripples - Ripples

Japanese: さざ波 - さざなみ
Ripples - Ripples
Also written as ripples, fine waves, small waves, etc. Small wrinkle-like waves that form when a weak wind (less than 5 m/s. Waves do not form when the wind is less than 1 m/s) blows across the water surface. They are surface capillary waves with wavelengths shorter than 1.7 cm. The generation of ripples plays an important role in the process in which wind energy is converted into kinetic energy for water.
