NASA’s SWOT satellite tracked large U.S. river flood waves for the first time, revealing their speed and size.

NASA's SWOT satellite has captured rare river waves across U.S. waterways, revealing new possibilities for flood prediction, ...

The rogue wave’s towering height was detected by a MarineLabs research buoy that was part of a broader system designed to monitor oceanic threats. Although it wasn’t the tallest rogue wave ...

Our research findings show that triad resonance can increase surface wave heights by more than 30% ... Our second paper demonstrates that monitoring and analysing these waves in real time could ...

The buoys also measure average wave height every 30 minutes. This wave fell within a period when the average was about 43 feet tall, the largest average ever recorded by Scripps coastal buoys.

25 feet Teahupo’o, Tahiti’s waves are modest in height but surfers ... s Day of that year, a monitoring platform off Norway’s coast recorded a single 84-foot wave surrounded by 20-footers.

Study reveals average winter wave heights along the Atlantic coast of Western Europe have been rising for almost seven decades. Average winter wave heights along the Atlantic coast of Western ...

To officially be rogue, the wave's height must be more than double the "significant wave height" of the area, which is calculated by averaging the height of the tallest third of all the nearby waves.

Oceanographers gauge wave height using a metric called “significant wave height,” which is an average of the top third of measured waves. The significant wave height for the storm on May 9 was ...
