Ocean engineering

high-frequency part of the wind wave spectrum where breaking caps wave energy, giving a level proportional to the inverse fifth power of frequency.

In ocean engineering, Phillips saturation range refers to high-frequency part of the wind wave spectrum where breaking caps wave energy, giving a level proportional to the inverse fifth power of frequency. This meaning comes from Phillips (1958) in Journal of Fluid Mechanics.[1]
