The "hundred-year wave" typically refers to a concept in hydrology and civil engineering related to the statistical analysis of water level fluctuations, particularly in the context of floods. It denotes a flood event with a probability of occurring once every hundred years, also known as the "100-year flood." This measure is used to help design infrastructure, such as bridges, dams, and levees, to withstand extreme weather events.
