Fetch-limited Wind Development

Fetch-Limited Wind Development is a meteorological phenomenon in which wind-generated surface waves on the ocean are constrained in growth by the finite horizontal distance, or fetch, over which the wind blows consistently, thereby limiting the energy transfer from wind to waves before equilibrium is reached.
