No. It may vary from year to year for a given location depending on storm activity, and sea levels have risen, but waves themselves are not getting bigger.

What is it called when waves pass through each other and make each other bigger?
its call superposition
Do waves that are out of phase ad together to make a bigger wave?
No. Waves that are out of phase (negative interference) will essentially cancel each other out. Waves that are in phase with each other (positive interference) will combine to create a larger wave.
How is a focus of an earthquake related to seismic waves?
the bigger the waves the bigger the earthquake
Each year waves erode about how much land from the coast of the US?
it is about 1 foot each year
What is a interference wave?
Interference means two waves meet each other. If the waves are in same phase, they'll enhance each other, creating a bigger wave or a bigger maximum at that point. If they are in opposit phase, they'll undo each other either fully or partially. This is called an destructive interference wave.
What is a desrtuctive interference wave?

What is it when two waves that meet and make bigger or smaller waves?
This is called interference. Positive interference makes bigger waves, Negative interference makes smaller waves.
Electromagnetic waves differ from each other in?
wavelength & frequency (but remember frequency is only a derivative of wavelength for any given propagation velocity) 'Amplitude' also varies (bigger waves!)
How big is a regulation volleyball?
The percentage gets bigger each year
Why does Cornwall have big waves?
the waves are big because Cornwall has the stongest wind, due to its fetch , and this causes the waves to be bigger
What affects do water waves and currents have on beaches?
