Rogue waves and analogies in optics and oceanography

JM Dudley, G Genty, A Mussot, A Chabchoub… - Nature Reviews …, 2019 - nature.com
Over a decade ago, an analogy was drawn between the generation of large ocean waves
and the propagation of light fields in optical fibres. This analogy drove numerous …

Closing the loops on Southern Ocean dynamics: From the circumpolar current to ice shelves and from bottom mixing to surface waves

LG Bennetts, CJ Shakespeare… - Reviews of …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
A holistic review is given of the Southern Ocean dynamic system, in the context of the crucial

Peregrine solitons beyond the threefold limit and their two-soliton interactions

S Chen, Y Ye, JM Soto-Crespo, P Grelu, F Baronio - Physical Review Letters, 2018 - APS
Within the coupled Fokas-Lenells equations framework, we show explicitly that, in contrast to
the expected threefold-amplitude magnification, Peregrine solitons can reach a peak …

Three-dimensional imaging of waves and floes in the marginal ice zone during a cyclone

A Alberello, LG Bennetts, M Onorato, M Vichi… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
The marginal ice zone is the dynamic interface between the open ocean and consolidated
inner pack ice. Surface gravity waves regulate marginal ice zone extent and properties, and …

Anomalous wave statistics induced by abrupt depth change

CT Bolles, K Speer, MNJ Moore - Physical review fluids, 2019 - APS
Laboratory experiments reveal that variations in bottom topography can qualitatively alter
the distribution of randomized surface waves. A normally distributed, unidirectional wave …
