Original scientific paper UDC 551.465 Freak Waves at Campos Basin, Brazil
Freak waves occur abundantly in Campos Basin, located on the north-east coast of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in the South Atlantic Ocean. This sur-prising and unexpected discovery was made from a search of the time-series data of wave measurements recorded in the Campos Basin from 1991 to 1995. In a stud...
