Abstract
Rogue waves (RWs) are rare, extreme amplitude, localized wave packets, which have received much interest recently in different areas of physics. Fiber lasers with their abundant nonlinear dynamics provide an ideal platform to observe optical RW formation. We review recent research progress on rogue waves in fiber lasers. Basic concepts of RWs and the mechanisms of RW generation in fiber lasers are discussed, along with representative experimental and theoretical results. The measurement methods for RW identification in fiber lasers are presented and analyzed. Finally, prospects for future RW research in fiber lasers are summarized.

Oceanic Rogue Waves

TL;DR: In most circumstances, the properties of rogue waves and their probability of occurrence appear to be consistent with second-order random-wave theory as mentioned in this paper, although it is unclear whether these represent measurement errors or statistical flukes, or are caused by physical mechanisms not covered by the model.
