ZF_4_06 — Ocean Remote Sensing and Satellite Oceanography

Satellite oceanography — the use of Earth-orbiting sensors to observe ocean properties from space — has transformed ocean science since the 1970s from a data-sparse field reliant on sparse ship transects to a globally co

ZF_1_15 — Wave Physics: Wind Waves, Swell, and Coastal Dynamics

Ocean surface waves are the most visible expression of ocean-atmosphere energy transfer — created by wind blowing across the water surface, they travel across entire ocean basins and dissipate their energy on distant coa

ZF_1_11 — Rogue Waves, Freak Seas, and Extreme Ocean Events

Rogue waves (also called freak waves, abnormal waves, or episodic waves) are individual ocean surface waves that are at least twice the significant wave height (H_s — the average height of the highest one-third of waves
