What is a Large Ocean Wave Called?

Tsunami. A wave (or a series of waves) in a water body caused by the displacement of a large volume of water. Earthquakes, eruptions, landslides, and other disturbances above or below the ocean surface have the potential to generate a tsunami.

What are Irregular waves at sea?

The ocean surface represents an irregular mixture of hundreds of waves of different speeds and sizes, all coming from different directions and interacting with each other. It is also referred to as random sea, or as confused sea. The sea shows rarely a unidirectional, regular sinusoidal wave pattern, but we observe a mixture of waves of different length, height and direction.
