-Parameter to switch on the effects of Langmuir circulation in PALM's ocean mode.
+Parameter to switch on and set the effects of Langmuir circulation in PALM's ocean mode.
 
 The effects of Langmuir circulation are considered in PALM by the Craik-Leibovich vortex force and the Stokes drift velocity, as described in Noh et al. (2004), JPO. In order to switch these effects on, you need to set both parameters, '''stokes_waveheight''' as well as [#stokes_wavelength stokes_wavelength] to a non-zero positive value. '''stokes_waveheight''' sets the height of the ocean surface waves to be used for calculating the vertical profile of the Stokes drift velocity. The direction of the Stokes drift velocity is derived from parameters [wiki:doc/app/inipar#top_momentumflux_u top_momentumflux_u] and [wiki:doc/app/inipar#top_momentumflux_v top_momentumflux_v], which define the wind stress at the ocean surface.
