DEROGUE WAVES Deterministic Forecasting of Rogue Waves in the Ocean
Coordinator: INSTITUTE OF APPLIED PHYSICS, RUSSIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES (RU)
Rogue or freak waves are short wave groups of anomalously high and steep waves (compared to ordinary sea waves) which have propensity to come seemingly out of nowhere. Such waves represent real danger even to the largest ships and offshore structures.Rogue waves cannot be prevented, but a better prediction could save lives. The present day forecasting of rogue waves is PROBABILISTIC, i.e. only the probability of freak wave occurrence in a given place and time is found as a result of wind wave modeling. The project is aimed at developing a radically new way of rogue wave forecasting – DETERMIN…
About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)
The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.
EU contribution: €15k awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 1 year from 2012-08-01 to 2013-07-31.
