      Wave steepness is the slope determined by the ratio between wave height and wave length. Wave steepness can be inferred from buoy measurements of wave height and period. When wind wave heights and periods are close to the same value (e.g., six foot seas every six seconds) wave steepness is severe. Pitch poling and capsizing becomes real

      wave can be described by a number of characteristics including length, height, period, and speed. These characteristics are determined by factors that generate the wave, and for shallow-water waves, the wave’s interaction with the ocean bottom. Once formed, waves may travel very long distances. As the waves travel, they

      That means that the wave has moved by one wavelength. Since speed is distance traveled / time spent, and a wave moves a distance of one wavelength in a time of one period, its speed must be: speed = distance / time = wavelength / period v = λ / p We more often use frequency = 1 / period. Then: speed = wavelength x frequency v = λ x f
