Velocity at the Surface in Mooring Forces Formulas

Velocity at the Surface is the speed and direction of water flow at the very top layer of the ocean or coastal water body. This velocity is influenced by various factors, including wind, waves etc. And is denoted by V_s. Velocity at the Surface is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Velocity at the Surface is always negative.
