Understanding Ocean Waves Power and Motion

The article explains how waves are not a single moving body but a sign of stress within water. It uses the analogy of a stone dropped in a pond to show how force transfers between particles, creating oscillations that propagate until energy is spent.

It cites Scoresby measurements of Atlantic waves from four to forty three feet, notes storms and earthquakes altering heights, and recounts records such as a 2,720 foot longest wave and a global voyage of a giant wave from Peru to Yokohama.
