Wind Stress Forcing

Wind Stress Forcing is a physical mechanism in oceanographic and atmospheric sciences that represents the transfer of momentum from the atmosphere to the ocean surface due to spatially and temporally varying wind stress, thereby driving large-scale oceanic responses such as coastal upwelling and modulating monsoon-ocean interactions.
