A giant wave seemingly came out of nowhere in November 2020, lifting a buoy near Ucluelet, Vancouver Island, off the […] ...

Our research findings show that triad resonance can increase surface wave heights by more than 30%. Of course, the generator would require energy, though the hope is that this too could be powered ...

Scientists define a rogue wave as any wave more than twice the height of the waves surrounding it. The Draupner wave, for instance, was 25.6 meters tall, while its neighbors were only 12 meters tall.

The significant wave height, an average of the largest 33 percent of the waves, was 61 feet, with frequent spikes far beyond that. At the same time, none of the state-of-the-art weather forecasts ...

calculated using the wave’s length and the square of its height in 80 feet of water — the mooring depth of the buoy. These high-energy events represent the real-world conditions most likely to ...
