The movement of sand down a beach
A rush of water that flows out from the shore through a narrow opening
Tide with the greatest difference between high and low tide
These are large streams of moving water that flow through the ocean
This type of current is caused by differences in density
The movement of energy through water
Tide in which water reaches its lowest point on the beach each day
The total amount of dissolved salts in ocean water is called
The effect of the Earth's rotation on the direction of winds and currents is called
The highest point of a wave
A long, low ridge of sand deposited offshore as waves go back out to sea
Tide with the least difference between high and low tide
A vertical section of the ocean from the surface to the ocean floor is referred to as the
The pattern of temperature and precipitation typical of an area over long periods of time
The lowest part of a wave
The number of waves that pass a point in a given amount of time
Tide in which water reaches its highest point on the beach each day
The most abundant salt in seawater is
An abnormal climate event that occurs every 2 to 7 years in the Pacific Ocean
The distance between the crest of waves
A wall of rocks or concrete built outward from a beach to prevent erosion
This is an underwater vehicle built of strong materials to resist pressure
This prevents divers from going deeper than 40 meters below the surface
This type of current is caused by wind
The distance from the crest to the trough
