\end{equation} with coefficients $a$ and $b$ derived from a set of observations.
Because it was clear that $W$ cannot vary with wind speed in a linear way, some autors tried to link $W$ with the cubed wind speed,
\begin{equation}
W = a({U}_{10} +
b)^3 b)^3.
\end{equation}
According to Philips, in 1985, to obtain the whitecap fraction, one can refer to an average bubble persistence time $\tau_{bub}$ to obtain $W$:
\begin{equation}
