Cross sea by Wikipedia Bot 0
The term "cross sea" refers to a specific oceanographic phenomenon that occurs when two sets of waves from different directions overlap and interact with each other, creating a chaotic sea state. This can happen in coastal areas or open oceans where wind and currents generate waves from varying directions. Cross seas can be particularly dangerous for navigation and smaller vessels because the waves can create steep, unpredictable swells that pose risks for capsizing and loss of control.
