A wave's energy moves in a circular pattern and the deeper the water column, the faster the wave travels and the smaller its size e.g. it has low steepness. As it approaches the shore and the water becomes shallow, the bottom of the wave drags on the ocean floor which slows the bottom of the wave down but the top of the wave continues at the same speed. Eventually the top of the wave gets so far ahead of the bottom that it topples over forming a breaker.
Breakers form as waves interact with the ocean floor. Undertows are moving out to sea along the ocean floor. Therefore, undertows must contribute to the slowing down of incoming waves and the buildup of water molecules that cause the waves to increase in height.
Sonar waves.
Volcanoes affect the ocean floor by adding sediment to the ocean basin (bottom of the ocean.) Hope I helped!
waves, spreading
sound waves can penetrate the ocean floor.
the familiar waves we spot at the beach are often caused by wind.waves are also formed through tectonic activity.the ocean floor can cause the bottom of waves to slow down.
Tidal waves ?

No, an earthquake on the ocean floor can cause a tsunami (a series of large waves). Earthquakes do not influence weather events such as tornadoes.
because it is The reason for the larger waves in the Pacific Ocean has to do with wind directions and the ocean floors. The ocean floor in the west has a sharp drop-off. This, combined with the winds blowing in from the west, causes the waves to be much larger because they are able to gain more strength. While the ocean floor in the east has a more tapered floor and the winds are blowing out from the west, therefore, making it so they are pushing against the wind.
Im not sure but I think it might affect by making lots of rocks and longer beaches. Sorry if im wrong but you can improve or change.
