The article reports on the study conducted by the researchers at the University of California at Los Angeles on rogue waves in California. According to lead investigator Daniel Solli, the study has found that noise with the correct properties can foster the generation of such waves. In addition...
1). Rogue waves at the shoreline have fatally swept people out to sea at Point Reyes, Maverick’s beach, and Arcata, in California and Depoe Bay, Oregon11. Rogue wave-ship collisions have resulted in fatalities, cargo loss, and ships foundering12. In the region, the NOAA research vessel...

Tim Janssen, an expert in Physical Oceanography in Half Moon Bay, California, mentions that the New Year’s Wave is one of the finest examples of rogue waves. On 1 January 1995, an 85 feet high wave hit the Draupner oil platform in the North sea off the coast of Norway. It was one...
Rogue waves in a normal-dispersion fiber laser The first observations of rogue-wave formation in a normal-dispersion fiber laser are reported. With an interference filter in the cavity, non-Gaussian dis... Z Liu,S Zhang,FW Wise - Lasers & Electro-optics 被引量: 25发表: 2015年 Modelling ...
These solitons would be completely invisible — like giant, rogue waves washing through the galaxy but made of matter so light that they would barely affect their surroundings. But the scientists behind the new study discovered that the solitons' huge size could subtly alter the gravitational enviro...
extreme waves32,33, as kurtosis is a measure for tail-heaviness of a distribution, and rogue waves are extreme outliers by definition. In other words, we examine the question: is a sea state that is more prone to outliers in the recent past also prone to more outliers (rogue waves) now...
This study included 8 buoys off the California coast and 1 buoy near Martha's Vineyard. The analysis concludes that rogue wave occurrence is greater in the summer and winter months, and that the average frequency of rogue waves in the areas studied is 6.9 per year when a rogue wave is ...
“Rogue waves” or “freak waves” can appear and disappear without warning in the open ocean and have been the stuff of maritime folklore for centuries. Once dismissed by scientists as fanciful sailors’ stories, recent observations have shown that they are a real phenomenon, capable of destroyi...
- Infrared view:Unlike Hubble, which largely views light that's visible to us, Webb is primarily an infrared telescope, meaning it views light in the infrared spectrum. This allows us to see far more of the universe. Infrared has longerwavelengthsthan visible light, so the light waves more ...
