Wave Generation

Wave Generation is the physical process in oceanography by which surface or internal waves are created through the transfer of energy and momentum from external or internal forcing mechanisms (such as wind stress, gravitational forcing, seismic disturbances, or topographic interactions) to the water column, as distinct from the subsequent propagation and dissipation of those waves.
