Title
Oceanography: Rogue waves.
Abstract
The article discusses the reconstruction by researchers at the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology of the wind and sea conditions at the time of the capsizing of the fishing vessel Suwa-Maru No. 58. The team used a computer simulation model to offer a plausible account of the formation of rogue waves which is what investigators hypothesized caused the accident.
