The mechanisms governing the evolution of the wind-wave field in time and in space are not
yet fully understood. Various theoretical approaches have been offered to model wind-wave …

We investigate experimentally the statistical properties of a wind-generated wave field and
the spontaneous formation of rogue waves in an annular flume. Unlike many experiments on …

Experiments on wind-waves in a laboratory tank are carried out for a variety of operational
conditions. In addition to using a conventional wave gauge to determine the temporal …

Different wavy regimes in stratified air–water pipe flow are determined for a wide range of
gas and liquid flow rates in a 10 m long horizontal pipe with a diameter of 24 mm. Three sub …

We propose a methodology to extract short‐scale statistical characteristics of the sea surface
topography by means of stereo image reconstruction. The possibilities and limitations of the …

The sea surface essentially contains multiscale roughness with capillary waves of many
sizes riding on large-scale waves that are also of many sizes. It is instructive to exploit the …

A simple automatic multipolarization technique for discrimination of main types of thin oil
films (of thickness less than the radio wave skin depth) from natural ones is proposed. It is …

We show, using simple physical models, that a quantitative estimation of the volume fraction
of marine oil slicks can be achieved from dual-polarization synthetic aperture radar (SAR) …

The authors consider the deviations of wave height statistics from Gaussianity, manifested in
higher statistical moments of random wind-wave fields, namely, in the nonzero values of the …

A numerical model that allows one to study numerically the evolution of waves along the test
section of a wind-wave tank is offered. The simulations are directly related to wind-wave tank …
