dc.description.abstractSearch and Rescue (SAR), and hazardous material (HAZMAT) operational models include modules for predicting the drift of common SAR objects and HAZMAT materials and objects, as well as modules for planning the appropriate resource response. To predict an objects drift, these models require forecast winds and currents, as well as algorithms of the wind and wave component of drift for the objects of interest. During this experimental field study, direct leeway measurements were made on two fiberglass 19-ft (5.8 m) skiffs; a 19.6-ft (5.97 m) outrigger canoe common to the South Pacific Islands; and a 2-person Personal Water Craft (PWC). This report summarizes the results from this field study from a cruise between Chuuk, Puluwat atoll, and Guam in May-June of 2012.
