Using the Stokes waves as a model of nonlinear waves and considering the linear component as a narrow-band Gaussian process, we derive, for points in the vicinity of still water level, the covariances and spectra of velocity and acceleration components and pressure, taking into consideration the effects of free surface fluctuations. The results are compared with those obtained earlier using linear Gaussian waves.
