For centuries, rogue waves were considered nothing but nautical folklore. It wasn't until 1995 that myth became fact. On the ...

One way around this problem lies in the interaction between two types of waves: those on the ocean's surface, and those that reside underwater. My research group has just published a paper ...

The primary area of research is air-sea interaction, including the topics of surface wave dynamics, air-sea fluxes, upper ocean turbulence, including Langmuir circulations, and the remote sensing of ...

Tsunamis form from sudden water movements, mainly undersea earthquakes, spreading waves across oceans and increasing as they near shores.

Tiny ocean wave vibrations from the Gulf of Alaska — too subtle for humans to notice — can travel through land as far north ...

The physics of the ocean wave at the surface has its power in the wave length. Waves that are spread apart, pack more power ...

"Wind pressure acts like fuel for ocean waves—higher pressure pushes ... Strongly Forced, Surface Gravity Wave Conditions, Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans (2025). DOI: 10.1029/2024JC021616 ...

Scientists are making significant strides in developing efficient technologies to harness the immense power of ocean waves, ...
