Wave Dynamics and Wind Waves

Delve into the intricate world of waves, including wind waves, orbital waves, and their classification based on disturbing and restoring forces. Learn about deep water waves, shallow water waves, and the factors influencing wind wave development. Discover how interference and rogue waves can impact wave patterns, along with phenomena such as wave refraction and reflection.
