A trough is the opposite of a crest, so the minimum or lowest point in a cycle. When the crests and troughs of two sine waves of equal amplitude and frequency...

high winds and strong currents cause waves to merge to create a single exceptionally large wave. Recent research suggests sea state crest-trough correlation...

can be described in an electromagnetic wave as the midpoint between crest and trough, which has zero magnitudes. In an s orbital, no nodes go through the...

roughly half the actual measured or estimated height of a wave's face (trough to crest height). Thus, a "3-foot" wave is roughly six feet high (in actuality...

the difference between the elevations of the wave crest and trough, h : the mean water depth, and λ : the wavelength, which has to be large compared...
