How Currents Trigger Extreme Sea Waves. The Roles of Stokes Drift, Eulerian Return Flow, and a Background Flow in the Open Ocean
Abstract A deterministic system of ocean surface waves and flow in the oceanic boundary layer is key to understanding the dynamics of the upper ocean. For the description of such complex systems, a higher‐order shear‐current modified nonlinear Schrödinger equation is newly derived and then used to p...
