    Jim said,
    What ever happens to these waves? Don't they have to make landfall at some
    point? I am a bit lost as to how this much energy could be dissapated and it
    still be such a mystery.

    Jim,
    When the force (wind) that makes them disappears the internal fiction of the
    wave steels all the energy and the wave decreases in height over time until
    it reaches land and becomes surf or disappears.
    All the best,
    Robert Gainer
