Summary


A wave, measured by its length, period, and height, is energy moving through water.

Shorter waves, generated by local winds and vessel wakes, influence the water elevation that already varies with tide and season.

Wave energy moves across the water and is ultimately expended on the shoreline, working to erode, transport, and deposit beach sediment.

Wave energy is relevant in marine and lake shoreline types.
