A very detailed article on the characteristics of waves and wave behavior. It discusses the influence waves have on the marine environment and the global climate, the physics of wave motion, the interactions between waves and wind, wave behavior in shallow water, how groups of waves behave, and wave reflection. Includes formulas and lots of illustrations and graphs.
