Rogue waves and analogies in optics and oceanography [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Physics, 2019
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 experimental studies in both systems, which we review here.

Contourites: Physical oceanography, process sedimentology, and petroleum geology

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2017
The purpose of this critical review is to address fundamental principles associated with contourites and other bottom-current deposits. The four basic types of deep-marine bottom currents are: (1) thermohaline-induced geostrophic contour currents, (2 ...

The physical oceanography of the transport of floating marine debris

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Marine plastic debris floating on the ocean surface is a major environmental problem. However, its distribution in the ocean is poorly mapped, and most of the plastic waste estimated to have entered the ocean from land is unaccounted for.

Observational case study revealing oceanic internal solitary waves modulating air-sea interactions in northern South China sea [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) are extreme oceanic dynamic processes that significantly modulate sea surface currents and roughness, but their roles in air-sea interactions are still poorly understood.

Pūtahitanga: the intersection of western science and mātauranga Māori in the context of Aotearoa New Zealand’s physical oceanography

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 2020
Aotearoa New Zealand is a land and cultures surrounded by one of the planet’s larger marine exclusive economic zones per capita. Understanding, living within and utilising this domain requires a well-developed knowledge of the physical oceanography ...
