Scientific paper

A preliminary look at the possibility of surface waves existing on Titan, assuming it possesses an ethane/methane ocean, is taken. The properties of the waves are deduced using well understood theory and compared with the properties of waves on the Earth's oceans. Our calculations show that the lack of knowledge of surface wind speed on Titan produces the greatest uncertainty in the expected wave properties.
