Wind and Waves - ABC Catalyst
A new study of satellite data covering a twenty-year period - the most comprehensive research of its kind ever undertaken - suggests that, in extreme weather conditions, wind speeds have increased by 10% and wave heights have grown by nearly 7%
-
Wind and waves growing across the globe
Oceanic wind speeds and wave heights have increased significantly over the last quarter of a century according to a major new study undertaken by Australian researchers. -
Of winds and waves
As Category 4 Tropical Cyclone Olivia tracked across Australia's North West Shelf in April 1996, a wave-measuring buoy recorded a 22-metre monster passing Woodside Energy's North Rankin A gas platform. -
Making Waves
Lake George near Canberra is the perfect place to study waves - or so says the US Navy which is funding Australian research into the physics of waves.
