Application to an area off the Finistere coast of a statistical method of estimating wave currents near the sea bed -The spectral energy distribution of >ea wavec is supplied four tiniei a da) b) the French Mrteorological Onice's UsAc mode1 uiing the pressure distribution aber the it lantic as input. The wrfacc-motion spectrurn furni\hed bq the model mai. then k uaed 10 ebtimate the local current bpecrrum near the sea bed. The present study is bahrd on four qears (1970-1974) of DSA. data for the ro-called Brittany point (47',30 N. 5" WI. The data correlates reawnably well with observatii~ns made from ships in the region Iying between 40 5 0 N and O -10 M i i-ipuir I ) . . . Plotted on Weibull paper in Figure 2 are the cumulative probability values of U I i as calculated from the USA5 data ( U , 3 is the mean of the upper third of maximum current values at a depth of 100 m). The experimental C i i statistics appear to obey Weibull'~ law quite closely. They also show that 0.7 m/s currents occur on average once a year. The principal objective of the study was to provide orderof-magnitude estimates of currents. Accordingly. factors tuch as reflection, diffraction. bed friction. and loss o r gain of amplitude due to reduced depth were neglected. The extent t i > uhich thii i i juitified might be as\e\..ed h) carrking out model calibration tests in an area of particular interest in the course of one winter.
