Water waves are a dramatic, potentially dangerous, yet beautiful phenomena that is omnipresent and impacts every aspect of life on the planet. At smaller length scales the ripples driven by surface tension affect remote sensing. At intermediate length scales waves in the mid-ocean affect shipping an…
