Big waves are typically caused by strong winds blowing over a large area of open water, creating a transfer of energy to the surface of the water. In some cases, underwater geological features, such as reefs or underwater canyons, can also contribute to the formation of large waves. Tides, earthquakes, and storms can also generate big waves.

What is the wave base?
The wave base is the maximum depth at which waves cause significant water motion. Below the wave base, water is relatively undisturbed by wave action. The depth of the wave base is determined by the wavelength of the waves.
Which waves cause particle motion that is back and forth in a direction parallel to the wave motion?
Transverse waves cause particles to move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the wave motion. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, cause particles to move back and forth in a direction parallel to the wave motion.
