Wave–Current Interactions in the Agulhas Retroflection: The Beluga Reefer Accident

Wave–Current Interactions in the Agulhas Retroflection: The Beluga Reefer Accident

The Beluga Reefer accident underscores the hidden risks associated with complex wave–current interactions along South Africa’s coastline, particularly in the Agulhas Current retroflection zone. This study utilized ERA5 reanalysis and CMEMS surface current data to analyze the sea state conditions at...
