Detailed Description

Subroutine that computes U and V wind stresses.

This routine computes surface layer U and V wind component stresses using K theory as presented in section 8.4 of "Numerical prediction and dynamic meteorology" by Haltiner and Williams (1980, John Wiley & Sons).

Parameters

[out]	TAUX	Suface layer U component wind stress.
[out]	TAUY	Suface layer V component wind stress.
