Proposals have been put forth to classify tsunamis based on intensity and magnitude. These include the Sieberg Ambraseys and Imamura Iida intensity scales and the Murty and Loomis scale for magnitude.

There is no specific height. Tsunamis are not defined based on height, but rather on how they are generated. Tsunamis do not bahave as normal wind-generated waves. They have wavelengths of many miles and take several minutes to come in and out. Tsunamis are generated by underwater earthquakes or landslides.
