WAVE-WAVE INTERACTIONS, CURRENT-WAVE INTERACTIONS AND RESULTING EXTREME WAVES AND BREAKING WAVES
The influence of an opposing current on highly non-linear transient breaking waves in deep water is described quantitatively from experiments. 3 new parameters that describe crest front steepness and wave asymmetry are introduced. Further, joint probability density distributions are obtained from an analysis of field data containing nearly 25000 storm ...

Supershear Rayleigh waves at a soft interface [PDF]
We report on the experimental observation of waves at a liquid foam surface propagating faster than the bulk shear waves. The existence of such waves has long been debated, but the recent observation of supershear events in a geophysical context has ...

More Intense, More Frequent, and Longer Lasting Heat Waves in the 21st Century
A global coupled climate model shows that there is a distinct geographic pattern to future changes in heat waves. Model results for areas of Europe and North America, associated with the severe heat waves in Chicago in 1995 and Paris in 2003, show that ...

An extension of the RiMAX multipath estimation algorithm for ultra-wideband channel modeling
This work presents an extension of the high-resolution RiMAX multipath estimation algorithm, enabling the analysis of frequency-dependent propagation parameters for ultra-wideband (UWB) channel modeling. Since RiMAX is a narrowband algorithm, it does not

Continuous-wave submillimeter-wave gyrotrons [PDF]
Recently, dynamic nuclear polarization enhanced nuclear magnetic resonance (DNP/NMR) has emerged as a powerful technique to obtain significant enhancements in spin spectra from biological samples. For DNP in modern NMR systems, a high power continuous-wave source in the submillimeter wavelength range is necessary. Gyrotrons can deliver tens of watts of
