Sorry, no can do. Rogue waves are, well, unpredictable. That's how they earned their name... :smile:

That's much more practical. What reading have you been doing about rogue waves in the past?

None apart the one I already published (which is in French). Could you propose any similar beginner-friendly material ?

I would start with some Google searches and look for the best scientific links in those...
