Short summary
Short summary
Parametric excitation of edge waves with a frequency 2 times less than the frequency of surface waves propagating perpendicular to the inclined bottom are investigated in laboratory experiments. The domain of instability on the plane of surface wave parameters (amplitude–frequency) is found. The subcritical instability is observed in the system of parametrically excited edge waves. It is shown that breaking of surface waves initiates turbulent effects and can suppress the parametric generation.

Short summary
Hazardous sea waves that have irregular structures approach the coast very often. They should be characterized by their statistical characteristics. They are found here within an analytical theory of shallow-water wave run-up on a beach without breaking. Obtained distribution functions can be used for estimates of the flooding zone characteristics in marine natural hazards.

Short summary
Strong internal waves have a significant influence on underwater marine environment and off-shore engineering facilities. They induce noticeable currents and take part in the processes of mixing of water layers, suspension and transport of sediment particles, and formation of sea bottom relief. We consider probability of emergence of large-amplitude internal waves on the basis of instrumental measurements of internal wave fields in five different regions of the World Ocean.

Short summary
The nonlinear Schrödinger equation describing weakly rotational wave packets in a fluid in the Lagrangian coordinates is derived. Rogue effects are possible in low-vorticity waves, and the effect of vorticity is manifested in a shift of the wave number in the carrier wave. Special attention is paid to Gouyon and Gerstner waves. It is shown that this equation in the Eulerian variables can be obtained from the Lagrangian solution with an ordinary change in the horizontal coordinates.

On 15 February 2013 at 09:20 local time in the vicinity of the city of Chelyabinsk, Russia, a meteorite exploded and collapsed in the earth's atmosphere as a result of inhibition. Small fragments of the meteorite came down on the Chelyabinsk region. The results of the numerical modeling of the processes that began in the water after the meteorite entered Lake Chebarkul in the framework of the Navier–Stokes equations are presented in this paper.

Short summary
The 1993 Hokkaido tsunami brought about a maximum wave run-up of 31.7m. To reproduce the extreme run-up height, a three-dimensional non-hydrostatic model has been locally applied with open boundary conditions supplied in an offline manner by a three-dimensional hydrostatic model. The diffraction of the tsunami wave primarily by islands was found to result in the extreme run-up height as in the laboratory simulation.

Short summary
The characteristics of highly nonlinear solitary internal waves are calculated within the fully nonlinear numerical MITgcm model, which is verified and adapted on the data from laboratory experiments. The comparison of the computed soliton parameters with the predictions of the weakly nonlinear theory is given. The reverse flow in the bottom layer behind the soliton is confirmed by the numerics. The trajectories of Lagrangian particles in the internal soliton are computed.
