Coefficient of drag
If you've been using info from Bell + Denny 1994 to calculate
water velocities from forces imparted on dynamometers in the
intertidal zone,your velocities are wrong. We're redoing all the
calibrations currently, and hopefully a paper with updated
coefficients of drag for wiffle golfballs and 1" roughened
spheres will appear in the near future. We're using a water
cannon, aka the Finkler Sprinkler, to do new measurementsof Cd.
