Jérôme OLLIER on 29 Jul 15Physicists have found an explanation for rogue waves in the ocean and hope their theory will lead to devices to warn ships and save lives. "A device on the mast of a ship analysing the surface of the sea could perhaps give a minute's warning that a rogue wave is developing" said Professor Nail AKHMEDIEV, leader of the research at the Research School of Physics and Engineering. "Even seconds could be enough to save lives."
