Sea waves, in the generally accepted
sense, owe their origin to wind pressures.
The level surface of the sea becomes rio
pied by the first gusts, and these undula-
tions are increased in size and changed in
form by the varying pressures impaired by
the wind. The minimum wind velocity
capable OF generating sea-waves appears
to be two feet Per second. waves thus pro-
dueed measuring three fourths of an inch
from crest to crest. On the other hand, il
IS stated that an exceptionally violent gale
has been known to have produced a sea
wave measuring ESQ feet from crest to
crest.
The velocity of the wind and the ssfetch =
or distance along which propagation is
continued, are the principal limiting fac
tors in the form and size of seq waves.
but the duration of the wind force. the
depth OF the water, aud the conformation
OF the shore have important bearings on
the results produced. On this account it
is extremely difficult, if not impossible. to
construct formula giving the height of a
a-wave in the terms of the velocity OF
the wind, even if a fetch of unlimited dis
tance be assumed.
Wave forms vary considerably during
storms, and often one system Of waves
may be superimposed upon another. or
Two systems OF waves may travel in diff
ferent directions. The conjunction of two
waves, belonging to separate systems, pro-
duces those exceptionally large waves
which approach the shore at more or less
regular intervals. The original systems
OF oscillation are lacking in stability and
are incapable OF being propagated con-
tinuously, but these are gradually de-
stroyed after contributing their energy to
the more stable forms, and eventually
only the trochoidai forms-the truly stable
forms-remain.

Some large Boston interests in the
