Waves On The Rocks In The Center Of Vietnam Royalty-Free Stock Photography

In fluid dynamics, a wind wave, or wind-generated wave, is a water surface wave that occurs on the free surface of bodies of water. Wind waves result from the wind blowing over a fluid surface, where the contact distance in the direction of the wind is known as the fetch. Waves in the oceans can travel thousands of kilometers before reaching land. Wind waves on Earth range in size from small ripples, to waves over 30 m 100 feet high, being limited by wind speed, duration, fetch, and water depth
