Lake Huron has officially recorded waves surpassing 35ft in height in most severe storms. In the storm of 1913, the J.H. Sheadle was reportedly hit by a 70-90ft wave disabling the vessel for a period of time almost sinking her.
The largest tsunami ever recorded occurred on July 9, 1958 in Lituya Bay, Alaska. The tsunami was triggered by a landslide that fell into the bay, generating a wave that reached a height of approximately 1,720 feet (524 meters).
The two most famous (current) tsunamis are the 2011 Tohoku tsunami in Japan and the 2004 Boxing Day (Sumatra) tsunami. The greatest historical tsunami (a series of them) accompanied the explosion of Krakatoa in August, 1883.
The example provided is an example of a mechanical wave, specifically a surface wave, which occurs at the interface between two different media, in this case, air and water.
The highest wave ever recorded was 1720 ft (524.256m). This wave was recorded at Lituya Bay on the southern coast of Alaska in 1958. An earthquake measuring 8.3 on the Richter scale hit the area and shook loose an estimated 40 million cubic yards of dirt and glacier from a mountainside at the head of the bay. When the debris hit the water, the massive 1720-foot wave was created and washed over the headland.
1720 ftTsunamis are known to have reached heights of 30 meters (100 feet) or more.
12 feet
The largest recorded tsunami was a wave 1720 feet tall in Lituya Bay, Alaska.
The largest wave ever recorded was a 1,720 feet (524 meters) high tsunami that struck Lituya Bay, Alaska in 1958. This wave was caused by a landslide into the bay and is considered the tallest tsunami in recorded history.
The largest wave is the R
The largest wave in an electrocardiogram is typically the R wave.
no it is not the largest.
In1904 there was a long heat wave.
The largest amplitude in a wave represents the maximum displacement of the wave from its rest position. It is significant because it indicates the maximum energy carried by the wave and can affect the intensity and strength of the wave's effects.
Well in scientifical purposes, all waves are different lengths and widths. The largest wave that was created in LakeMichagan was 21 feet. The highest rate of width that was produced by Lake Michagan was 9 feet. Also if you want to find out more about Lake Michagan or about waves, you could always visit www.scientificalwaves.com/waves.

The primary (P) wave is recorded first on a seismograph. It is the fastest seismic wave and can travel through solid rock and liquid.
Tsunamis
The magnitude of most earthquakes is measured on the Richter scale, invented by Charles F. Richter in 1934. The Richter magnitude is calculated from the amplitude of the largest seismic wave recorded for the earthquake, no matter what type of wave was the strongest.
