The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Parameterizing the Sea Surface Roughness (2005, methodology): “Of interest here are stress measurements made using a Gill R2A three-axis sonic anemometer mounted on a bow mast at 7.8 m above mean water level (MWL).”
A Global Climatology of Wind–Wave Interaction (2010, methodology): “In agreement with Drennan et al. (2003), the wind-driven wave regime is most common in enclosed seas where c p is limited by the available fetch.”
Effect of Surface Waves on Air–Sea Momentum Exchange. Part II: Behavior of Drag Coefficient under Tropical Cyclones (2004, background): “Recently, a number of observational studies indicated that Cd strongly depends on the sea state (Toba et al. 1990; Smith et al. 1992; Johnson 1998; Drennan et al. 2003).”
