This phenomenon's namesake sediment pattern fines landward, and the largest recorded one of these was the Lituya event.
In 1988, Dawson et al. reconstructed an ancient instance of this phenomenon in Scotland. This phenomenon can be measured by the twelve-point Papadopoulos-Imamura scale, which was developed in 2001, or by the older six-point Sieberg-Ambraseys scale, whose factors include whether or not (*) bores are generated. They can generate seiches and edge waves, and when they interact with trapped or leaky modes they can lead to persistent standing water. This phenomenon's namesake sediment pattern fines landward, and the largest recorded one of these was the Lituya event. Some fear that Cumbre Vieja in the Canary Islands can cause a "mega" one of these, whose first sign is a recession of coastal water. For 10 points, earthquakes or landslides can generate what kind of large wave with a Japanese name?
