3D imaging study shows rogue waves in young, wind-fueled seas are more common than previously believed, challenging assumptions and highlighting the need to consider wind in predictions.
A study using 3D imaging of ocean waves reveals that rogue waves, producing extreme sea conditions, are more common than believed. Young, wind-fueled waves show self-amplification and a higher likelihood of rogue waves, contrasting mature seas with no increased probability. This challenges previous assumptions and highlights the need to consider wind when predicting rogue waves.
