The Yellow Sea is one of the most productive continental shelves in the world. This large
marine ecosystem is experiencing an epochal change in water temperature, stratification …

On October 29, 2018 a very severe storm affected Northern Italy, including the Adriatic Sea.
The ensuing surge and wave conditions at and in front of Venice stand at the extreme tail of …

Estimating river discharge requires simultaneous measurement of velocity and flow depth.
While surface velocities are relatively easy to measure using noncontact techniques, depth …

Stereo imaging of the sea surface elevation provides unique field data to investigate the
geometry and dynamics of oceanic waves. Typically, this technique allows retrieving the 4-D …

Reliable predictions of oceanic waves during storms have always been foremost for offshore
design and operation, coastal hazards, and navigation safety. Indeed, many accidents that …

Typical oceanographic instruments are expensive, complex to build, and hard to deploy and
require constant and specialized maintenance. In this paper, we present a cheap and simple …

The study of extreme ocean waves has gained considerable interest in recent years, due to
their importance for offshore design and navigation safety, and several theoretical …

One of the most promising techniques for the analysis of Spatio-Temporal ocean wave fields
is stereo vision. Indeed, the reconstruction accuracy and resolution typically outperform …

In February 2017, a wave buoy was deployed in the Southern Ocean, south of New Zealand
at 52° 45.71′ S, 169° 02.54′ E. For 170 days, the moored buoy transmitted spectral and …

Very large waves populate world oceans and challenge seafarers and offshore structures,
but their long-term and global assessment is uneasy because of the scarcity of observations …
