Abstract :
Recent experiments have shown fundamental differences id the electromagnetic (EM) bias between different regions of the world. In order to account for these difference, various sea and weather parameters are analyzed. A new parameter called wave slope is derived. Using data from the Gulf of Mexico Experiment (GME) and the Bass Strait, Australia Experiment (BSE) the correlation between EM bias and wave slope is investigated. A high degree of correlation is seen between the wave slope and EM bias in these two experiments. This correlation indicates that wave slope my be highly indicative of the regional differences in the EM bias throughout the world
