| wave length |
In simple terms, the horizontal distance between successive wave crests measured perpendicular to the crests. However, in a random sea, a variety of interpretations of this are possible. A commonly used definition is the so-called zero-upcrossing length, which is the horizontal distance between two successive upcrossings of the mean water level. See wave frequency, wave height, wave period.

| walking |
A method for cloning large regions of a chromosome. Starting from a known site, a gene library is screened for clones that hybridize to DNA probes taken from the ends of the first clone. These clones are then isolated, and their ends used to screen the library again. These clones are then isolated and their ends used, and so on. See gene walking; chromosome walking.
