Funded Activity Summary

Rogue waves in oceans and optical fibres. Rogue waves can sink large ships in the ocean. They appear more commonly than previously thought. Optical rogue waves, the laboratory counterparts of extreme ocean waves, will allow the project to study the main features of the phenomenon, provide the theoretical explanation for their existence and potentially help to eliminate these catastrophic events.
