wavelength, amplitude, and frequency
in general, a harmonically oscillating, one dimensional wave is described by the following function: f(x,t)=Acos(2phi*t/T -2phi*x/ג) where A is the amplitudes (or wave height), T is the wave's period time and ג is the wave length. these are the three basic characteristics of a wave. other characteristics can be calculated from these: the frequency f=1/T , and the speed of the wave v=גf.
The details depend on what type of wave you are talking about, and what exactly you want to measure about the wave.
The amplitude of a sound wave is the measure of the intensity of the sound, such as loudness.

Three aspects of sound waves are frequency (pitch), amplitude (loudness), and wavelength (distance between wave peaks). These factors determine the characteristics of a sound wave such as how high or low the pitch is, how loud the sound is, and how the wave propagates through a medium.

To measure the speed of a wave, you multiply the frequency by the wavelength.
The characteristics of a sound wave is the Amplitude, Frequency, Wavelength, time period, and velocity. The sound wave itself is a longitudinal wave that shows the rarefactions and compressions of a sound wave.
Earthquake wave.
The amplitude of a sound wave is the measure of the intensity of the sound, such as loudness.

... monitored with a detector designed to detect wave characteristics. When monitored with a detector designed to detect particle characteristics, light demonstrates those too.
is there a scale used to measure the intensity of heat wave
