78 ft high wave record in the Southern Hemisphere

How high the waves can be? Researchers have got a wave record of one foot, not 78 feet high or about 8 floors. The highest recorded wave of 23.8 meters in the southern hemisphere is in the hands of researchers.

According to news agency AFP, research firm Metausan Solutions said that they recorded high waves from a buoy near Campbell Island in the southern ocean on Tuesday. The area is 700 kilometers south of New Zealand south.

According to senior oceanographer Tom Durant, the highest elevation in the southern hemisphere was 22 decimal zero meters. The wave was recorded in 2012. But the previous record broke on Tuesday with a terrible storm.

Tom Durant said, "According to our data, this is the highest wave in the southern hemisphere so far. The windswept engine is the world's largest wave wave.

Durant said, during the storm, it was probably 25 meters high. But Buya was not in a suitable place to record it.

The Bua was established in March to monitor extreme conditions in the South Ocean. To save battery it records 20 minutes every three hours. When the record was closed, the highest wave was created.

According to the Smithsonian magazine, the world's highest wave was recorded in 1958. The height of the wave was 30.5 meters during the tsunami caused by earthquake in Lithuania, Alaska.
